So someone hit me yesterday on the highway, totalled my car and injured me pretty badly. Since I was hurt the officers rushed me into an ambulance before I could exchange information. one of the officers told me that he could provide me with the other drivers information after I got care and he gave me his card to call him, it has the case no. as well. Now today I call, they’re telling me that they cannot give that information out until the crash report is done and that they’re waiting on a signature. So I’m stumped, but like ok, I’ll just keep checking and then I’ll file. AND THEN as soon as I get off the phone I got a call from *my* insurance. The driver that hit me, somehow has my insurance and information and he filed a claim against my insurance. Basically saying my story exactly, trying to claim I hit him. What can I do from this point? I could try to hire an attorney, but without having his information I’m stressing that I’m going to get screwed. 😭

I was rear ended by a driver with an out of state license, but his truck is registered in this state (Texas), he seemed to be a shady individual as well to me when dealing with him. The police came and wrote a report but it didn’t technically put him at fault even though he rear ended me. I did however get him on video admitting he was at fault. I filed the claim with his insurance, but it was a slow response from them. I went ahead and filed with mine to get the ball rolling because I needed to get it fixed. Well turns out that was a good move because come to find out he wasn’t covered by his insurance company at the time. So basically he got away with having no insurance when the police arrived because he had a paper saying he did. My question is now that my truck is fixed and back to normal, I received a diminution in value evaluation form from my insurance company for me to fill out. Is this to provide a compensation due to my truck now losing some value to the accident? It had never been in an accident previously so what can I expect towards compensation based on the value of the truck. Its KBB value ranges from $15-$19k. It’s in excellent condition though. How would diminution work according to that? Will my insurance company send me a check or something? Also on a side note, can I contact the police to inform them that his insurance company called me and said that he was not covered at the time? Could they pursue a ticket to him even though he has an out of state license?

Hello all, thank you in advance for your help, this has been a nightmare of a case with the valet company that services my apartment building. Long story short, the valet that parks the residents cars at my apartment building backed my car into a wall causing significant damage to the trunk and bumper. The valet is denying responsibility given there was no camera that captured it happening in real time. The valet company is refusing to give me their insurance information, and my insurance is claiming the valet driver is a “permissible driver” and therefore the liability falls on me. Now my insurance is being raised by almost double because I now have an “at fault” accident on my record. What is the best course of action here? How can I get the valet’s insurance info? Any help here is greatly appreciated…

Location: Houston, Texas On July 15th 2024, I was involved in an accident with a driver. It was a two-way street and I was at the middle crossing section ready to yield to the street I need to go. I noticed a driver coming out from the plaza and looked like they are waiting to cross to the street where I was coming from. Before yielding, I made sure no incoming cars and safe to go; attempted the yield. As I turned, the car from the plaza crossed the street and a collision happened where my front hit their side. Police was called but no report was made as they said it was minor. The other driver insisted the police to give me a ticket but they didn’t and sent us home after we exchanged insurance. After that, I did all my obligations with my insurance company and they denied claims from the other driver as they said it was not my fault and I had the right to yield. Fast forward to now, I received a paper said I’m being sued for personal injury but in remember the police asked the driver questions to determine if the driver need medical attention and the driver said no. I contacted my old insurance right away to inform them about the sue paper. I don’t know what to do from here.

My son was hanging out with his girlfriend’s family when her dad pulled out a couple of dirt bikes and offered to let them drive around the block on them. No helmets, no licenses, bikes aren’t registered or even road worthy. My son is 15 with a learners permit. It was 8pm, dark, and the bikes had no headlamps. Long story short, my son ended up running into a car, causing $7K in damages and losing part of a toe in the process. My insurance company will not cover this because it was outside the scope of the coverage provided for the learners permit. The driver is threatening a lawsuit. I’m angry at the girlfriend’s father. I would have never allowed him to get on that bike if I had known about it. I knew the consequences if something like this happened. In addition, the father apparently verbally told the driver he would cover the damages but he hasn’t returned my call. Can the driver sue me? Shouldn’t she just file with her insurance company for uninsured/under insured motorist coverage?

I just recently got into a car accident where I was turning left on and intersection right after my light turned green, and the other driver was to my right side driving straight through the intersection with a red light. They hit me on the front right side of my car and my car was deemed totalled. I called the insurance company and she has not yet made a detailed statement on her insurance or police report (the accident happened at around 6pm on Monday). My insurance is deeming this 100% my fault. How do I get out of this? It obviously was not my fault as she ran then red, but they are saying there is no proof to her running a red light, which is true, I have none. But why does it then have to be 100% my fault? It is so so frustrating, and I would like some help going forward with this. I haven’t signed any papers for the insurance company yet and am hoping to dispute this. Do I have a leg to stand on? Thanks. Edit: I should also add that I have told my insurance company about her carrying an expired insurance sheet and her driving for Uber Eats with her car not registered as a commercial used vehicle.
