My neighbor’s sister and my son-in-law were both backing out of our driveways and backed into each other. The damage was less than $200. At that time, both decided that the police did not need to be called because there did not to seem to be any visual damages. The next day the neighbor says that her sister’s car is pulling to the right. After offering to help with the costs, I talked to the mechanic and was able to get a discount from $180 to $123 and offered to pay $75 of the $123 charge; however, she expects a full payment. In FL when 2 people are backing up, who is at fault and who is responsible for payment of damages?

Pennsylvania Car Accident

Back a few years ago when I was living in the state of Pennsylvania during a snow storm I got into a car accident that was not my fault but the fault of the driver of the other can, and we both traded our insurance and everything. Both cars were not drivable so they were towed away, my insurance company ruled that my car was not fixable and then payed a quoted amount to the company I took the loan out of for the car, but it was not enough to pay the car 100% off, so I am wondering that even though this much time has passed, can I sue the driver of the other car for the remained amount that is due on the car?

Can an insurance company find me at fault for an accident and send me to collections without a court case?

I was in a car accident where I hit a vehicle that fled the scene of the accident. That vehicle cut me off in a construction area, the vehicle in front of it hit its brakes causing a chain reaction.

As it went I will illustrate it as follows:
1) My Vehicle
2) Vehicle that Fled the Scene and caused said accident.
3) Vehicle that was hit from behind by the Vehicle that fled the scene. (Also the person who’s insurance is harassing me)
4) Vehicle that was hit by Vehicle #3

Now my vehicle is totaled and I am out looking for a replacement. It was paid for so we only have liability. Of course were not happy but we were told there is nothing we can do.

However the Insurance Company for Vehicle #3 called me for a statement which I gave them. They admitted there driver did not see who hit them or where they went.

A few weeks later I started to get a letter stating I was at fault, our insurance refuses to pay because I as well as a witness claim I hit a small SUV that fled the scene.

I now got a collections letter and I am completely confused. There has been no trial, no court case nothing. I was cited for failure to have my license but the court dropped that, I was also cited for speeding but the ticket listed my speed as the speed limit so I asked for a court case there. I am obviously confused.

They never asked to speak to my witness nor anything else.

Can they just send me to collections? Can this get attached to my credit? How can this be possible given the situation? I don’t see how I could be responsible for a vehicle I did not hit or should I just wait for the court case if there will even be one?

Thank you.

Recently, I was involved in a car accident in a private parking lot. I was driving down the trafficway of the parking lot (going about 10mph) and i got T-Boned by another vehicle who was CLEARLY cutting through the parking spots (not using the trafficway provided to the public- and going about 30 mph) my vehicle sustained major damage making it UNDRIVABLE (which was a HUGE inconvenience seeing I was on a weekend trip and over 2 hours from home) i had to have the car towed back to my area, My passenger and I are feeling pain from the incident!

On top of pictures, we also have a police report which states that we had the right of way and they were in the wrong! If i was to follow through with a lawsuit what would be my chances of winning this case?

A driver with a suspended license ran a red light and totaled my daughter’s car.
I don’t know if he had insurance at this point. My daughter’s insurance company wants to give her 9,500 for her 2005 Camry with 77k miles on it.She is going in for a MRI next week that was requested by her doctor. The driver’s car was impounded and he just walked away from the accident. This seems unfair on her part as she did everything right. What will happen to the driver if anything?
