What is the name of your state? Oklahoma
Brief description of accident - I was driving west bound when a car pulled out of a gas station in front of me. She was making a left hand turn across three lanes of traffic. I hit her in the driver side door and front fender. My airbag deployed. I suffered a detached retina and may lose vision in my right eye. The other driver was given a citation for "failure to yield" and admitted fault at the scene. I was not cited.
She had insurance with policy limits of 50000. My medical bills alone may exceed this amount. She is a full time student, 20 years old, and lives with her parents.
Questions:
1. If the car is registered to her parents, is there any liability on their part if I sue for damages exceeding the policy limits?
2. If the car is not registered to her parents, is there any liability on their part if I sue for damages exceeding the policy limits, since she lives at home and is supported by them?
3. How do I find out if they have an umbrella policy? Just ask?
