Are Car Accident Settlements Taxable?

– Insurance settlements for auto injury cases do not increase your net worth, so they are not taxed by the IRS.
– Compensation for physical injuries, vehicle repair, and emotional distress from a car accident is non-taxable.
– Proceeds for emotional distress or mental anguish from a physical injury are treated the same as proceeds for personal physical injuries.
