What is the name of your state?New Mexico
I am not even sure how to start. I drove my step dad to a friends house so he could diagnose his car. My friend backed his car up to test the clutch but when he went to pull the manual car forward the brakes did not work and he gave too much gas, My step dads leg got crushed between his car and a parked car(not working) in the drive way.
It broke his leg and we called the ambulance to take him to hospital. That was April 28th. At the time he just gave his (my stepdads) health ins info. He has been on disability for 4 months now and there is still swelling in his leg so he cannot work his type of job. My friend says he did not have ins. But he had just bought and registered the car that month so I am pretty sure he had insurance for that month only. He will not give us any ins info now and does not have it anymore anyway. Does my stepdad call his ins to try to get the bill paid? Is it even possible since his car was not involved at all? and is 4 months to long? and even if we were to get my friends carrier he will probably not cop to it now anyway. Even though there is not a police report the ambulance driver was told exactly what happened as well as a neighbor. Not sure if that helps. Yes I know he is not really a friend I am just being nice. If my friend does not call his old ins company to claim fault what are my step dads options to get his medical bills paid? so basically this is the jist. Car accident to pedestrian. person at fault never called his ins co and probably never will. He was only insured for 1 month. and step dads health ins will not pay hospital bill. Is it too late for my step dad to file a claim with his insurance when we cant even get the person at fault to make a statement? We are so confused on what to do and I feel responsible for taking him there in the first place.
