That's the first place I would go is to the police officer who wrote the report. Let them know the insurance lapsed and ask them to check on a current insurance. If the policy they gave the office is not valid I would pretty much guarantee that they don't have insurance. You can call the owner of the vehicle from the report as well. Most likely you will have to turn it over to your insurance company if you have uninsured motorists coverage. Your company will pay the claim and go after the other party. They will do the legwork and pay all legal fees involved with collecting from the other person.

First, you cannot find out what insurance company another person uses as this is a privacy issue. If you have had an accident with this person, the insurance company will be listed on the accident report. This is your only option for getting the insurance company name, unless the person wishes to tell you.

If you were involved in an accident with this person then their insurance information will be listed on the accident report.

If an uninsured person borrows your car and gets in an accident deemed by the other insurance co to be her fault when your insurance has lapsed who is liable the driver or the car owner?
I am sure that there are examples to the contrary, but the car owner is the one responsible for the insurance. It's your car. It's your responsibility to make sure it is insured......it would also be your responsibility to make sure whom ever you loaned it to were licensed and legal.
