Start with the good news. If you carry a Maryland auto policy, you almost certainly have PIP on it. Insurers here are required to offer at least $2,500 in personal injury protection, and it pays medical bills and lost wages no matter whose fault the crash was. You do not have to prove anything, wait for an adjuster to accept liability, or settle first. The only people without it are those who signed a written waiver, and most people do not remember doing that.

Now the hard part. Maryland is one of a small handful of places that still applies contributory negligence. If the other driver's insurer can argue you were even slightly responsible, your claim against them can fail completely. Not reduced. Gone. That rule turns your medical record into the most important document in the whole matter, and a record that starts three weeks after the crash is a much weaker one.

What tends to surface after a collision

  • Neck stiffness or pain appearing within the first 72 hours
  • Headaches starting at the base of the skull
  • Pain across the upper back or between the shoulder blades
  • Tingling, numbness or weakness running into an arm or hand
  • Low back pain that is worst when sitting or driving
  • Trouble sleeping, poor concentration or dizziness since the impact
  • Jaw pain or clicking after an airbag deployed

How an accident case actually runs here

Visit one is an examination, not a treatment. Range of motion, orthopedic and neurological testing, imaging only where the findings justify it. You leave knowing what is injured, in plain words, with a written plan and a realistic timeline.

Active care usually runs two to three times a week early on and tapers as movement returns. Most soft tissue cases settle across six to twelve weeks. You get re-examined at intervals so the file shows measured progress instead of an open-ended run of visits, which is what insurers attack.

On the money side: PIP is billed directly, so in most cases there is nothing out of pocket while care is happening. If health insurance or a liability claim is involved instead, that gets sorted before treatment starts. If you have an attorney, records go to them without you chasing anyone.

Common questions

Auto Accident questions

Will using my PIP raise my insurance rates?

Using PIP is using a benefit you already paid for on a no-fault basis. Maryland law restricts insurers from raising your premium or cancelling you solely because you made a PIP claim. If you are worried about your specific policy, that is a fair question to put to your agent before you file.

How long do I have to act in Maryland?

The general statute of limitations for a personal injury claim in Maryland is three years from the date of the injury. PIP has its own much shorter notice and filing requirements set by your policy, often within a year, so PIP is the one that quietly expires on people.

I already went to the emergency room. Do I still need this?

Often yes. An emergency department rules out fractures, bleeds and anything immediately dangerous, and it does that well. It is not built to assess and document joint and soft tissue injury over time, which is what most collision injuries turn out to be.

What if I was partly at fault?

Then your PIP matters even more, because it pays regardless. Contributory negligence in Maryland affects what you can recover from the other driver, not your own no-fault benefit.
