What might happen depends on the specific situation. If the damage is minor and fault can be assigned to both drivers, both will probably be responsible for their own repairs. If the damage is minor, but one party is clearly at fault, the two parties may agree to a financial settlement, or there might be a lawsuit. If the damage is major, or there are injuries, one or both parties will probably file a lawsuit and sue the other party for reparation for damages. In such a civil lawsuit, the court will decide what, if anything, is paid and by who. |

Hopefully they both get tickets for driving without insurance. Then the one at fault makes the other whole by paying for the damage they caused. |

You each are most likely responsible for your own damage to your vehicles. If you believe the other person was at fault, you might want to consider filing some sort of lawsuit against them, alleging negligence. If it was a no-fault accident, however, you're probably just stuck with paying for your own repairs, should you choose to have them done. |
