Being hit by an uninsured driver doesn't mean you're left to cover the costs yourself. Claims involving uninsured or untraced drivers can still be pursued, typically through the Motor Insurers' Bureau (MIB), which exists specifically to compensate victims of uninsured and untraced drivers in the UK.
The process is more involved than a standard non-fault claim against an insured driver, which is exactly where having a Claims Advisor and, where necessary, legal support makes a real difference.
MotorClinicUK can still arrange your vehicle recovery and a replacement vehicle immediately, while the claim itself is progressed through the appropriate channel.
If you believe the other driver was uninsured, mention this when you call 0116 2018 111 so we can advise you on the right next steps from the outset.
