Is North Carolina a no-fault state for car accidents?

North Carolina is not a no-fault state. Instead, it follows a traditional fault-based system, which means that the party found to be at fault for the accident is held legally responsible for covering the damages. Under this system, the at-fault driver (or their insurance company) is liable for expenses related to property damage, medical bills, lost wages, and other losses incurred by the victim. This differs from no-fault states, where each party typically handles their own damages regardless of fault.
