I was in a car accident that was another persons fault he was ticketed and had insurance but I didn't what could I expect?

You might receive a citation from the responding law enforcement agency. This could include a monetary fine and you may have to show proof that you have obtained an insurance policy. Needless to say, this policy will not cover you for the loss that already occurred.

In addition, your license might be suspended and you may have to satisfy the financial responsibility laws. What this means is that you will have to buy an 'SR22' insurance policy. The SR22 filing is proof of insurance that is filed with the Department of Motor Vehicles in your state to re-instate a driver's license that has been suspended.
