the city? I'd imagen the person who stole the car would not have insurance.

Your insurance company. |

if you have collision coverage, your insurance pays.
if you do not, you can try to sue the offending driver -- who probably has no assets from which you can collect. So then, you pay for it.

Don't forget to attend his trial and ask the DA in person to ask for restitution to injured parties [that's you]. If restitution is ordered, that's a court order and you can try to collect it by seizing and selling assets [if the perp has any]. |

your insurance or the driver. |

Department's are immune from damages and lawsuits stemming from damages of the fleeing suspect... the car owner's insurance or your company will pay and then go after the driver for damages. |

Wouldn't your insurance cover it, if it wasn't your fault? |

The police
Once they engage the suspect in the high speed chase any damages physical or property are paid by the city. Unless the person driving is Bill gates or donald trump you can't sue them and expect to be paid. |
