Will a careless driver will have auto insurance in a South Miami crash?
Maybe. South Miami is comprised of some well to do areas, and some poor areas.
If you’re hit in a well to do area in South Miami, then there then the odds are that the careless driver will have at least $10,000 in bodily injury (“BI”) liability insurance.
This is true even though most cars aren’t required to have BI liability insurance in South Miami.
You have a better chance of a driver having insurance in a more upscale part of South Miami than you do in Homestead or Hialeah.
If a car hits you in the poorer part of South Miami, the odds are that a careless driver will not have BI liability insurance. The poor area in South Miami is located south of University of Miami and west of the Shops of Sunset Place.

Driver Gets $12,500 for Herniated Disc; $10,000 Paid by State Farm
Maria (not real name) was driving her car in South Miami. State Farm insured the other driver who caused the crash.
Maria didn’t take an ambulance to the hospital. She drove herself to the hospital, where she complained of neck, upper back, shoulder pain.
An MRI of her neck revealed a herniated disc.
An MRI of her thoracic (upper back) spine revealed 5 annular disk bulges at T7-T8, T8-T9, T9-T10, T11-T12, and T12-L1. Like most clients with a herniated disc, she did not want epidural steroid injections or neck surgery.
I was Maria’s lawyer in this case. This is one of my many herniated disc cases with State Farm in Florida.
