The only specified car insurance coverage in the state of Virginia is uninsured motorist coverage. This requirement is set up so that in the event of an accident, the victim will have recourse to have medical costs, and vehicle damage, paid by the driver at fault.
If you have uninsured motorists coverage your insurance company will take the place of the other parties insurance coverage less a small deductible. They will then go after the other party to collect the amount of damages paid out plus your deductible. If and when it is all collected they will send you back your deductible. If your insurance company handles the claim for you and pays your damages you will have no further recourse as you sign over your legal rights to the insurance company under a subrigation agreement.
