Sen. Jeff Brandes will once again file legislation to repeal the states no-fault auto insurance requirement, saying its time for Florida to move away from the troubled system. The St. Petersburg Republican said repealing the states Personal Injury Protection (PIP) system will be one of his top priorities during the 2017 legislative session. The decision to file the bill comes just a few months after a study revealed Floridians could save an average $81 a car if the state drops the system.
“We believe that PIP is not the right product for Floridians going forward,” said Brandes.
