Kentucky rules that shape a claim like this

  • Choice no-fault state — drivers choose between no-fault and tort
  • Pure comparative fault for tort claims
  • 1-year statute of limitations for personal injury, 2 years for property damage
  • Mandatory auto insurance: 25/50/25 minimum liability with PIP

Kentucky Department of Insurance oversees one of the few choice no-fault states, where drivers can elect no-fault PIP coverage or retain the right to sue under tort. The state also has a notably short 1-year statute of limitations for personal injury.
