Question
I was recently involved in a hit and run accident.  The police located the person and he was a juvenile.  My car is totalled and his mother has praetorian insurance.  Can I make a claim against this insurance to recoup my losses?

Answer
Hello Rochelle,

Yeah, you can. The insurance company (praetorian) insured the vehicle. The old saying is: Insurance follows the car. Therefore, the driver (the juvenile) is covered (as long as she had permission to drive this car).

You should make a total loss claim against this insurance company as soon as you can.
