A: An Arkansas attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Unfortunately, that doesn't sound like a strong argument, unless the vehicle was unregistered, uninspected, and not in compliance with ordinary safety standards. You could mention the point to your insurance carrier if they've been presented with a property damage claim from the other vehicle. But it sounds like they would concede liability and pay the claim. Good luck
