all states require financial responsibility. usually what happens if you have collision coverage or umpd (uninsured motorist property damage), your policy will fix your car less the applicable deductible. if you or your passengers are injured then the um (uninsured motorist) coverage will take care of the injuries...your company will then subrogate the uninured motorist for all monies including your deductibles...of course most people without insurance don't have insurance because they don't have any/much money to pay for the coverage, so this can take years and years. they will also (generally) file a state report which can ulitmately take the drivers license of the person and fine them (if owner and driver are different both parties are At Fault, if permission to drive was granted by the owner), and pick up all plates registered to that owner. some times this takes years and years and years, I've seen even small claims where the uninsured person paid 50 bucks a month for ten years or better...most larger insurers have a subrogation department that are very good at recouping this money...there are many ways to do so...most will get a judgment against the party and garnish their pay checks, if they do not willingly repay the monies..let me know if you do not have collision or umpd and the state this accident occured and i can give you some other ideas about what you can do if you do not have the coverages therefore no representation of an insurance company in this accident (if the insurance company doesn't make payment they usually cannot represent you in these matters, ie if you have liablity only)

Where is the written rule that you cant hit a girl?

It's the law regarding assault. It doesn't say "don't hit a girl", the law applies to everyone regardless of gender. Hitting someone is assault. When people say "don't hit a girl" they mean because men presumably hit harder than women but not hitting girls is not in the law. The law says don't hit anyone.

What if the beneficiary of a life insurance is deceased and no contingent beneficiary is named?

In the case where no beneficiaries are living when the insured dies then the proceeds of the policy will be paid to the estate of the insured and handled in the manner according to state law. If the insured had a will then that will specify where proceeds go and if no will is found state law will specify. If the insured had a very large estate then some of the proceeds may be subject to estate taxes as they become part of the estate.
