So my family was in a car accident last night. We were hit from behind and the other driver recieved multiple citations. Unfortunately he claimed to have insurance but couldn't produce it at the scene, and then he left in an ambulance. Physically we are all safe and ok, which is what matters most of course. But I've never gone through the insurance process like this before.
The last time someone hit me it was pretty small and her insurance company had me at Auto Shop within hours getting a quote. This time the car isn't really drivable, the frame in the back is very crumpled. Technically it still rolls, it just isn't safe but the police did say to drive it the one block to our house while we figured things out with insurance. We called our insurance company and they said they would start digging for this guys insurance to see if he had any. I just feel like this is going to end up being very expensive for us in the end, even though it wasn't our fault.
