The minimum coverage cost in Michigan is relatively high because the state has one of the highest minimum coverage requirements in the country. Another reason for Michigan’s expensive auto insurance is historic pressure on the state’s no-fault insurance program from extremely high no-fault claims. For example, from 2002 to 2011, average claims for lost wages, medical expenses and other losses increased 192 percent, or 13 percent per year.
