I had an auto accident back in February. At the time, I thought I had liability auto insurance. Come to find out my insurance had lapsed and I knew nothing about it. It was raining and I tried to stop behind the car in front of me, who was stopped at a traffic light. Their was no way I could miss her. My car started skidding down the hill and I ran into her right rear fender/bumper.The other driver was able to move her car to the side of the road as I did also. Well, when she got a copy of the accident report she called and left a message on my cell phone and let me know that I did not have any insurance and she was taking me to court to sue me and get the money to pay for her damages to her car.
I do not know what to do because I git a summons to court and the cost is $4,421.00 in damages and I am a single Mom and I do not know where I will get this kind of money. A friend of mine told me since she put on the reason why she is suing me is because her insurance comp. told her too and she has no-fault ins. Neither one of us got a ticket at the scene but a week or two later I got a ticket for no ins. Please someone explain this to me because right now I'm worried about this.
