Summary: Many Pennsylvania drivers don't realize that it's possible to have exceptional coverage for property damage, medical expenses, even injuries you cause to another, yet have a limited tort policy that prohibits you from recovering money for your own injuries when you need it most.

"But... I thought I had full coverage." Too often, I hear those words from someone injured in a car crash, right after they learn that they have limited tort insurance, which bars them from pursuing compensation for pain and suffering. Many Pennsylvania drivers don't realize that it's possible to have exceptional coverage for property damage, medical expenses, even injuries you cause to another, yet have a limited tort policy that prohibits you from recovering money for your own injuries when you need it most.

"But... It wasn't my fault." Save for a few specific situations, that doesn't matter if you have limited tort insurance. Even if you did nothing wrong and the crash was entirely someone else's fault, limited tort can still prevent you from recovering compensation for your pain and suffering.
