I was in an accident it was my fault i was turning from the center turn lane across 2 lanes of traffic i turned as the car on the inside lane was passing and didn’t see the car in the other lane and hit them totaled both vehicles and they hit a tree in someone’s yard and were injured.

I don’t have a license and obviously no insurance and i wasnt even supposed to be driving that car at all and now the insurance company is sending bills for it to my friends mom who’s car it was. I was driving so im responsible not her right??

Answer:

Hello Becky,

The insurance company can look at you for payment but they can also look at the vehicle owner. You re primarily responsible but she can still be liable.


As always, it is very important that you talk with a local attorney!
Good Luck,
