The importance of having auto insurance: If you are involved in a hit-and-run collision with an unknown, at-fault driver, your insurance company will compensate you for the property damage and bodily injury you suffered through your Uninsured Motorist Coverage. For cases involving unknown hit-and-run drivers, it is important to note that actual physical contact must have occurred. For your Uninsured Motorist Coverage to apply in hit-and-run cases, you or someone on your behalf must: (1) Within 24 hours, report the accident to the appropriate law enforcement agency; and (2) Within 30 days thereafter, file a written statement under oath with your insurance company that you have a cause of action for damages arising out of the accident against a person whose identity is unascertainable. If you are involved in a hit-and-run collision, be sure to call the police or sheriff to report the accident ASAP. Then, call the Law Office of Edward Pamintuan to see how you can be compensated for your property damage and bodily injury.
