Surely, this is going to "hit the fan".
If you file a claim with the insurance company, they will be asking if the accident was reported and to whom, and who suffered the damage. This will reveal that it was hit and run, and the insurance company will refuse to pay on the basis of a criminal action.
If there are witnesses to the event, or if the insurance company pass on the information, a prosecution will follow.
The person held responsible for the damage or injury will have to bear the cost, both to the victim and the repair to your father's car.
Your father's "drama" is going to be the least of your worries. |

I don't think that would ever be my boyfriend any anymore. Can you believe what he would do when he married you? Run don't walk to the nearest door when you're around him and don't EVER come back.
God Bless |

So why was he driving your car if he wasn't insured in it?
Your fiance isn't the only one that's "dum" here. |

if he wasn't on the insurance and left the scene of the accident the insurance isn't going to pay if they figure out he should plan on paying it out of his pocket |

Your dad's policy should pay for the damages to the other vehicle. If is is minor your fiancee may want to pay for the damages himself. |

Please don't use all caps, it's like your yelling at us for his problem.
I agree with most everyone that answered. Your fiance could be arrested for a hit and run accident. You could try to do a claim with your dad's insurance, but they most likely will deny it because he left the scene an accident.
He will probably want to pay for the damage himself or risk going to jail for leaving the scene of an accident. |
