Is a police report required to pursue legal action against an uninsured motorist?
No, but it will make it much easier. The problem is without a police report it is harder to prove the accident occurred, how it occurred, who was involved, etc.
What if the other party does not report the car accident?
If you know the information, or as much information as you can get, about the other driver, furnish that to the police and/or your insurance carrier when you file your own report.
Can there be two different police report of accident one given to the parties and another given to insurance company?
Generally speaking, no. It usually takes at least a few days for the report to be completed so whatever you get at the scene of the accident won't be much. Whatever the insurance company got from the police, you should be able to get it too.

Amount of settlement is dependent on how much damage has occurred, and who was listed at fault on the police report.
How can you find someone's auto insurance policy?
You can't unless they tell you who they are insured with. Who a person is insured with or even if they have insurance is a private matter between the insured and the insurance company. Now, if there is an accident and the police come to the scene they will collect that information and put it in the accident report. This is why it is crucial to always call the police to the scene of the accident no matter how much the other person begs to give them a break. Always, always!!! call the police to the scene of an accident. The exception is if the accident is on private property.

Do insurance companies in auto accidents go by the police report?
Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Police officers who make out an accident report are rarely a witness to the actual accident and almost never investigate and auto accident unless foul play is suspected. Typically an officer responding to the scene of an accident is simply noting observations and taking down the statements of others. There is no reason to assume that the officer knows all the facts, has interviewed all witnesses or even has the training to determine fault or legal liability. An insurance adjuster does have that training. Although an insurer will certainly want to review any accident reports that have been filed to make sure they have as much information as possible, they do not make a determination based solely on a police officers accident report.
