Notes: In 1974 the Minnesota Legislature passed the Minnesota
No-Fault Automobile Insurance Act. As a result, the state became
a compulsory insurance state. The Act requires owners of motor vehicles to purchase insurance policies which, at a minimum
must include Personal Injury Protection (PIP) (also called No-Fault
Protection), Liability Insurance, and Uninsured/Underinsured Insurance. The goals of the Act are to ensure that everyone who is
injured in a motor vehicle accident within the state of Minnesota
has a source of PIP benefits. The Act determines which policy is
the source of these PIP benefits.The Act also created the Minnesota
Automobile Assigned Claims Bureau (MAACB) which provides PIP
benefits to those who qualify but who, through no fault of their
own, have no policy available to them.
