No-fault laws are one of the contributing factors to why car insurance premiums climb higher in some states. Twelve states hold these rules and demand that your insurance covers your injuries after a crash despite who caused it.
What are no-fault laws? In a typical setup, the at-fault driver's insurance picks up the tab for your damages, but in no-fault states your own policy steps in to handle your injuries, regardless of blame. This hinges on Personal Injury Protection—PIP for short—a required coverage in these states. PIP takes care of costs tied to the accident including medical bills and lost wages. States like Florida, Michigan, and New York follow this system though each have their own set of rules regarding PIP and subsequent lawsuits.
Here's a twist: no-fault states often block lawsuits for pain and suffering unless injuries hit a serious mark—like severe harm or death. The goal? Fewer court battles and, ideally, lower premiums. But does this actually work out the way it is supposed to?
Supporters say no-fault laws smooth out the claims process because your insurer pays your PIP claim directly. This supposedly cuts delays and legal tangles. Fewer lawsuits over pain and suffering could trim administrative costs for insurance companies and if those savings stack up, they might show up as lower premiums, especially where lawsuit limits hold firm.
But there's a flip side. PIP coverage often costs more than optional medical payments in fault-based states. With its wide reach—covering medical expenses, lost income, and beyond—insurers face bigger payouts. Michigan once had unlimited medical benefits under PIP, sending premiums through the roof. Recent changes let drivers pick lower limits.
Fraud adds another layer to the insurance mess. In Florida and New York, staged crashes and padded claims have jacked up PIP expenses and insurers hit with these losses hike premiums to balance the books. Additionally every injured driver in a no-fault state files a claim with their own company, boosting claim numbers compared to fault-based systems. In at fault states, the number of claims files is half as it is usually only the at fault person filing.
As we&#8217;ve mentioned, insurance premiums depend heavily on where you live. High PIP limits, like Michigan's old standard, tend to mean pricier rates. Strict lawsuit caps can often hold costs down. Fraud also continues to be a huge issue and states that are able tackle fraud effectively can keep steady premiums.
Take Florida for example. Despite aims to curb litigation, fraud and lawsuits have pushed premiums far above the national average. Michigan's recent PIP adjustments hint that scaling back coverage can lighten the load. Other factors—accident frequency, medical costs, and city density—muddy the picture further.
If you live in a no-fault state it might be a good idea to check your PIP minimums to weigh if the extra coverage makes sense. Know your state's lawsuit threshold—it sets the bar for chasing damages beyond PIP. Adding uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage can shield you from drivers with skimpy policies, though PIP steps in either way.
Solid liability coverage matters in fault based states. If you cause a wreck, you'll cover the other side's damages. Optional medical payments coverage can act like PIP, but it often caps out lower.
In conclusion, are no-fault laws a true contributor to inflating premiums? It's a mixed bag. They can streamline claims and trim lawsuits and possibly cut costs. Mandatory PIP and fraud risks can nudge rates up. The real impact depends on your state's rules and broader trends. Understand your local setup and pick a policy that fits—your budget will feel the difference.

Alphabet, Inc.

What To Know: Alphabet's relative strength index fell to 29.17 on Thursday, its lowest since September 2024. The stock's RSI rebounded slightly on Friday to 29.51 at the time of publication, but remains below the 30 level traditionally used to mark a stock as "oversold."&nbsp;

The company faces multiple headwinds that may have sent investors running for the exit. Here's a look at some of Alphabet&#8217;s recent challenges:&nbsp;
Q4 Revenue Miss: Alphabet&#8217;s fourth-quarter earnings report released Feb.4 showed a slight miss in revenue, particularly in its cloud division. The shortfall, in a key growth area, raised concerns among investors and the stock dropped about 7% the next day. 
Regulatory Pressures: Alphabet faces several<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/02/43930715/google-sued-over-ai-search-overviews-education-company-says-tech-giant-is-stealing-content-and-driving-publishers-out-of-business"> legal challenges</a>, including an ongoing antitrust case with the Department of Justice that is expected to be settled in mid-2025 and could result in the divestiture of key business segments, including Chrome and Android.
Additionally, China announced an antitrust probe into Alphabet in early February and the company is under investigation by the European Commission for potential violations of its Digital Markets Act.&nbsp;
AI Competition: Google faces potential threats to its search dominance from emerging AI technologies like OpenAI and DeepSeek. The company has<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/44031714/google-implements-layoffs-in-hr-and-cloud-divisions-as-ai-investment-accelerates-report"> initiated rounds</a> of layoffs in order to reallocate spending toward AI research and development.  
Alphabet also announced a significant increase in capital expenditure from $58 billion to $75 billion for the current year, much of which is AI-focused.&nbsp;
Time To Buy?&nbsp;
Some analysts view Alphabet's current oversold status as a buying opportunity given the stock has a strong balance sheet and is trading at a lower multiple compared to other Big Tech names.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The three most recent analyst ratings have an average price target of $226.67 between them, with an implied 31.74% upside for Alphabet shares.
