How can you find out if someone else's car is insured?

I was involved in a car accident about a week ago. The other driver was badly injured, so we were not able to exchange information. How can you find out if someone else's car is insured?

I’m sorry to hear that you were involved in a car accident. I hope you and the other driver are doing well now.
When you’re involved in an accident and there is no exchange of
car insurance
information, the best way to find out the other driver’s information is through the police. You would need to provide the police report and your identification as proof that you have just cause to request another individual’s insurance details.
However, you should know that if a report has been filed and you’ve made a claim, there may be no need for you to acquire the other individual’s information. Your car insurance company should be able to handle that for you.
If you’re having trouble dealing with your car insurance company in the wake of an accident or if you feel that you’re paying too much, check out the
