Call the police immediately and get an official report started, even without knowing who hit you. Write down whatever you can about the other car, color, make, direction of travel, and any partial plate number, and photograph the scene and your damage before anything gets moved. Get contact information from any witnesses right away, they tend to leave quickly.
What happens next
If the driver isn’t identified, your own uninsured motorist coverage becomes your main avenue for compensation, since an unidentified hit-and-run driver is treated the same as an uninsured one for insurance purposes.
