What Happens If the At-Fault Driver Is Uninsured in Wisconsin
Being involved in a crash is stressful, and the situation can become even more complicated if the at-fault driver does not have insurance. In Wisconsin, drivers are required to carry minimum liability coverage, but uninsured accidents still occur. Understanding your options can help you protect yourself financially and legally.
If the at-fault driver is uninsured, you may still have coverage through your own insurance policy. Many drivers carry uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, which can help pay for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages resulting from the crash. It is important to review your policy to understand what is included and how to file a claim.
Medical care should always be the priority. Even if injuries seem minor, getting evaluated ensures your health is protected and creates documentation that may be needed later. Keep records of all treatments, prescriptions, and related expenses.
You may also have the option to pursue a personal injury claim directly against the uninsured driver. However, recovering compensation can be difficult if the individual lacks financial resources. This is why insurance coverage plays such an important role in these situations.
