Hi,
I'm not sure if this is the right site, but I did come across it via Google.
Last week, I hit a pedestrian (accidentally) and the pedestrian was taken to hospital. I have since discovered that my insurance was out of date. I have now received notification that they intend to claim for negligence. I contacted my insurance company who said they wouldn't defend me. They did, however, tell me that the claimant will need to go to the Motors Insurance Bureau to make a claim. This is where i'm confused. Does the Motors Insurance Bureau come directly for me even though I didn't have insurance? If they do come through me will it be before a court? I'm slightly confused and worried.
Any comments on the actual process would be highly appreciated.
