txharleygirl1	Oh yes. Get a good lawyer and a couple more jobs. You'll need them. If you don't pay, you could have your wages garnished and your stuff sold. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

amylr620	yes. Unless the court orders you to pay the deductibles on the others insurance policy. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bostonianinmo	Of course, assuming that you are at fault. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

songbird092962	Duh... yes. If it was your car that caused accident. Even if it wasn't they can find you partly responsible because insurance is required on all vehicles these days. So if you were obeying the law the accident could not have happened as you would not have been driving to be part of the accident. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

rhsaunders	If you were at all responsible for the accident, you are liable. Doesn't matter where it was. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bunnicula	I'm sure the property you damaged has insurance covering it. And the property owner can look to their insurance company to fix it. However that being said, the insurance company in turn can and will sue you! If their property is not insured, yes you will be held liable for any damages. You need to consult an attorney. If you can not afford one, try to get a legal aid attorney. They work pro bono.You will have to carry SR-22 on your next policy, unless you can put the car in someone Else's name, when you carry it it will be cheaper that way! Good Luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

JUSTME	If it is your fault, you are darn right you are liable to pay for damages. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

critter man	yep,but states are different,the difference is fault or no-fault ins Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

trollwzrd	What wrkey said about Texas is true in Cal. also, except the vehicle registration, won't lose that but everything else. Also in Ca. if you are the registered owner of the car and allowed someone else drive it the same holds true. The only difference is you would be able to sue your friend or whoever you loaned your car to in order to pay you back. The only thing you wouldn't be able to sue whoever you loaned your car to is the fines that you will be paying for not having insurance, those you will have to pay on your own. And the last I heard NO insurance tickets are in the $200 to $300 range here. Oh and YES your insurance rates will be sky high, so like most everybody else here said HAVE YOUR CHECKBOOK HANDY. GOOD LUCK Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Papa John	If it was your fault. But don't get too excited about all the people saying all the legal problems. Some states require you to insure the vehicle while operated on public roads. You're still liable for damages, but I wouldn't go hire any attorney yet. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Britanie	hell yes you shouldnt be drivin without insurance Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Kata	DUH you shouldn't be driving without insurance. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Harley-HST	Dude!! You really must know that you are liable..Who in the hell do you think would be liable for your damage..Me??? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

nova-75-77	yeah but you will be most likely paying thier property insurance company for the damages and not the owners so you should be able to make payments Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

smgray99	So let me get this straight. You were driving illegally without insurance. You destroyed private property. You think that you shouldn't be responsible? The mere fact that you were driving without insurance shows some irresponsibility so I can see why you are asking. Now put yourself in the other party's place. Wouldn't they want you to accept responsibility? Time to mature and pay. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

wrkey	Not only will you be liable but in the state of Texas you stand to loose your Drivers License, have your auto regisistration revoked and you'll have to file and SR-22 proof of responsibility form all of which will make your insurance rates triple. You are certainly liable to pay any and all damages to the other persons property if the accident was your fault. The only way to prevent that is to prove it wasn't your fault. However, the consequences I spoke of in the first paragraph will still happen even if you prove it wasn't your fault. Sorry for the bad news.. but then again I'm sure you suspected that.
