Your first stop is your insurance company. Unfortunately, it may be your only stop. If you weren't able to get any details on the other driver you have no one else to file a claim against. However, if you DID at least get a license plate on the other car and filed a police report, the police can track that individual down and you can file a claim against the driver's insurance company. If the driver didn't have insurance at the time of the accident, you can still file suit against the driver personally. If you are able to go against that person and/or the insurance company, be sure to go after them for EVERYTHING, including repairs on your car, rental car expenses while your car was in the shop, all medical bills, and any time you had to spend filing a police report or going to the doctor or going to the body shop...you get the idea.

in case you have basically the traditional "finished" hide for the motor vehicle, then you definately could in all probability not have the flexibility to declare. you're able to have had to characteristic this variety of hide while first taking away the coverage. below general circumstances, you're able to have been able to declare scientific expenditures from the "different guy", i.e. from his third party hide. with the aid of fact there became into no "different guy", you're out of effective fortune. whether, in case you, or the police, or whoever, can discover out if all of us somewhat brought about the line to be greasy, then you definately could have the flexibility to place a declare against that individual, or agency.

You may have "uninsured motorist" coverage on your policy- this would take the place of the hit and run drivers bodily injury coverage.. so yes.. if you have that.. you can.
otherwise, nope.

Yes - you can pursue Uninsured motorist liability coverage - if you have that coverage on your policy. If you don't, then you have no outlet to pursue, aside from Med Pay or No Fault, depending on what state you are in.
