You go to a solicitor and they will make a claim through the motorists pool - set up by insurance companies for victims where there is no insurance. Make sure the police were aware at the time of the accident that you were injured - its hard to prove the accident caused it after the event. However, be prepared to go for medicals with a doctor arranged by the motorist pool - they dont pay out for nothing. If you are not really hurt then just be thankful that it wasnt serious. It can take up to 3 years of hard battle to get any pay out and if the injury isnt serious you may end up getting nothing at all after costs etc. Remember that claims from this pool is what increases drivers insurances when they do pay - so the innocent end up paying xxx

Actually - thinking about it - as a passenger, you would need to claim on the drivers insurance (the driver of the car you were in that is) and let them pursue the claim from the uninsured driver xx

If you are fully comp then the Motor insurance bureau should take the case. If you're third party you have problems as you're going to have to do the suing yourself and if he's got no money you won't get a penny.

The person who hit you is responsible for your injuries. You can sue him. If you have Uninsured Motorists' coverage on your own auto insurance policy, you can make a claim there. If the owner or driver of your vehicle has Uninsured Motorists' coverage, you can make a claim there.

Harsh as it may seem if you were the passenger in the car you can claim off the drivers insurance, they in turn May attempt to take action against the other driver. You need to speak to a personal injury solicitor as soon as possible to get more detailed information. Most are no win no fee , but at very least you will get a free initial interview with them

You need to contact Motor Insurers Bureau MIB, your insurance company should have a form for you. They are funded by insurers to sort out cases of uninsured drivers. Only problem is approx 200-300 quid will be taken out of any claim to cover procedures.

Happened to me, drunk driver total my car, no insurance, my car's value was about 300 quid so didn't pursue. Grrr chavs.

Were the police involved? If not at the time, best to give them a ring now and let them know this person had no insurance. You will probably need to sue them through the courts to get compensation and if you have a police report this could help.
Good luck!
