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.
