I was involved in an accident (in the state of Ohio) where the other driver was at fault. My car received a minor dent. Her vehicle received a couple of small scratches. I wasn't insured at the time of the accident. What could happen to me and my driving privileges? Is my insurance required when its the other driver is at fault? What if I choose not to pursue reimbursement for the damages from her insurance company (since it was minimal)?

In Ohio, you required to carry insurance to operate a vehicle. Without carrying the proper amount of insurance, you are facing a driver's license and registration suspension. You are facing their reinstatement fees. You may be forced to carry sr22 insurance. You should report all accidents to the police. The police will let you know their involvement level - including determining fault. You will also want to talk to the other party's insurance company. They will be responsible for fixing damage to your vehicle. (They may be responsible for any bodily injuries that you suffered from this accident - that you have not fealt yet.) You can follow this link to learn more about the Ohio Department of Insurance.
