Sherilyn Marie Pierce was injured when, as a pedestrian, she was struck by an automobile driven by Mark J. Giere and insured by appellant State Farm. Sherilyn did not own an automobile and lived with her husband, appellee James A. Pierce, who did own an automobile but who had no insurance. When Sherilyn filed suit against State Farm claiming personal injury protection benefits under Giere’s policy, State Farm filed a third-party complaint against her husband alleging that he was required to carry insurance; that had he carried the required insurance, his carrier would have been responsible for Sherilyn’s personal injury protection benefits;1 and because he had no insurance he became personally liable for the benefits with all the rights and obligations of an insurer.2
On motion by the husband, the trial court entered a final order dismissing the third-party complaint, and State Farm appeals.
The issues presented here have already been answered by our sister courts *1186contrary to appellant s contentions. Farley v. Gateway Insurance Company, 302 So.2d 177 (Fla.2d DCA 1974) succinctly covers the points raised here, and gives adequate support to the trial judge’s order, and we adopt the reasoning of that case.3 State Farm’s contention that those cases did not involve an attempt by the insurer to compel the uninsured owner to share in payment of benefits and thus distinguishes this case from those cited is without merit. As stated in Farley, supra, section 627.733(4) does not make the uninsured owner an insurer, so there is no basis upon which State Farm can invoke the statute requiring two or more insurers to share the payment pro-rata.4
*1185(4) An owner of a motor vehicle with respect to which security is required by this section who fails to have such security in effect at the time of an accident shall have no immunity from tort liability, but shall be personally liable for the payment of benefits under s. 627.736. With respect to such benefits, such an owner shall have ail of the rights and obligations of an insurer under ss. 627.730-627.741.
*1186In the third-party complaint, State Farm alludes to a separate action filed by Sherilyn against Giere and State Farm for damages arising out of the same incident, in which appellee, as Sherilyn’s husband, joined for his derivative claim. It is appellant’s position that the trial judge’s dismissal here gives appellee the opportunity to collect the same benefits twice, but this is not so, since section 627.736(3), Florida Statutes (1977), specifically precludes the recovery of any damages in a tort action for which personal injury protection benefits have been paid or are payable, without reference to who pays them.
The trial court’s order of dismissal was correct and is therefore
AFFIRMED.
