Q: Hi, my little sister was pulling out of a road and hit somebody riding an escooter. He had no insurance.
He wasn’t looking where he was riding and he is trying to get money out of her
A: If the e-scooter rider is claiming damages or injuries, your sister should report the accident to her insurance company as soon as possible. The insurance company will investigate the claim, assess the liability, and determine if any compensation should be paid. It's crucial for your sister to cooperate with her insurance company during this process and provide any relevant information about the accident.
Tim Akpinar agrees with this answer
A: Your sister's insurance company should handle any injury claims made by the other side if your sister was liable. If there was a police response, the accident report could help evaluate what occurred. Good luck
