Can an Injured Pedestrian Receive Michigan No-Fault Benefits?

Often, yes. Many people assume Michigan no-fault insurance only protects drivers and passengers. That is not always true — a pedestrian injured by a motor vehicle may also qualify for Personal Injury Protection benefits.

The rules for identifying the responsible no-fault insurer can become complicated, because coverage depends on the person's circumstances and the available insurance policies. An attorney can help determine which insurer should receive the claim.
