If you have Comprehensive coverage on your Auto Insurance Policy then you will be covered. A police report can be made at any time after the accident.

Bare in mind that the most frequent fraudulent auto property claims are usually reported as having taken place in a parking lot with no witnesses while a household driver check reveals unlisted drivers.

Insurance companies have learned that an insured is less likely to file a fraudulent insurance claim if they know that in doing so they will also have to file a fraudulent accident report with the police.

If your insurer denied the claim it may be because they didn't believe you or it may be that your Insurance Policy contract requires the report be made. Many Insurers are now requesting police reports in a loss situation.

Once you decided to not go through insurance and not file a police report, you left yourself open for paying for your own repairs. Sorry you learned such a hard lesson. Never have an accident and not get a police report. The insurance company is not going to pay out based on someone's word. A police report is needed to file a claim.

Hopefully you have insurance. Call the police, if you weren't driving the vehicle at the time of impact, then it shouldn't matter that you don't have a license. After the police have filed a report, file a claim with your insurance company. If you have no insurance, call the police anyway.

If a car backs into you in a MN parking lot a no fault state and there is no police report can you make them pay?

"No fault" in MN means that your own insurance company will pay for your medical expenses and/or wage loss if you are injured in a motor vehicle accident. Even without a police report you can contact the other driver's insurance company and make a claim for your property damage, if you have any. If the person is uninsured you then contact your insurance company to settle the property damage.
