Question
My car was parked outside of my house and go hit, I do not have insurance. The
person who hit it has insurance. What do i do now? Is it a lost cause or can
something still be done?

Answer
Hi Laila,

If you know who it is that hit your car and you have their insurance information, then just call their insurance company and report the claim. They will investigate the situation and will pay to repair your car.

I hope this helps
