What is the name of your state? Delaware
On Friday 12/29/06 @ 5:50p I was rear ended by a drunk driver while I was stopped at a red light. The driver who hit me came to my car window several times begging me not to call the police. Of course I did call 911. I was in a very dark isolated area, so I was scared, but I did crack my window enough to hand him a pencil & paper in an attempt to get his name. A woman who was passing by stopped and pulled over to stay with me until the police & my family arrived. Once the police showed up the drunk driver took off
through a wooded area. The police did not find him, but they did get registration & insurance information on the car. Once both vehicles were towed & I was given a complaint by the officer, I called the company that insured the vehicle that hit me & filed a claim, I made arrangements for my kids & went to the emergency room to be checked. I have not spoken to anyone from the insurance company yet, but plan to call them on Tuesday. My questions are how will this proceed since the driver left the scene of the accident? How do I get a rental car? Can I request the place for repairs to my vehicle? Will I be compensated for my injuries? ( back, neck & knee)
