Not according to Florida’s Chief Financial Officer, Alex Sink, who is the head of The Florida Department of Financial Services (formerly known as the Department of Insurance).

Sink says in a letter to Governor Charlie Crist, “Over the last few weeks, my staff and I have taken a comprehensive, objective look at what might happen when No-Fault sunsets. We have met with stakeholders representing all facets of the issue, including auto insurers, health insurers, medical providers, lawyers, my own Division of Insurance Fraud investigators and heard from citizens from all over Florida. Our work led us to create a hypothetical scenario of a post-No-Fault auto accident involving two cars and two drivers. This scenario, which you will find attached, highlights significant policy issues that I believe we must consider as October 1 approaches.”
