Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is insurance that covers medical expenses and lost wages for you and your passengers after an accident, regardless of fault. It’s commonly used in “no-fault” states where drivers rely on their own insurance for immediate medical coverage, reducing the need to prove fault.

However, PIP isn’t a replacement for liability insurance—it doesn’t cover vehicle damage, injuries to other drivers, or legal fees if you’re sued. California doesn’t require PIP, but some drivers add it for extra protection in case of injuries.

Yes, in some cases, you may be able to receive unemployment benefits if you’re unable to work due to an accident.

However, qualifying for unemployment after an accident depends on several factors, including:

• Whether you’re physically able to work in any capacity
• Actively seeking work, and
• The regulations in your state.

In California, for example, you must be “able and available” for work to collect unemployment.

If your injury prevents you from performing your previous job but you could handle a less strenuous one, you might still qualify.

However, if your injury prevents you from working at all, unemployment benefits may not be an option.

If your injuries are severe enough to prevent any work, you may be eligible for state disability benefits instead of unemployment.

California’s State Disability Insurance (SDI) can provide temporary financial support until you recover. For long-term incapacity, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) may be available.
