Each person is responsible for their own medical expenses. Each injured person can bring suit against the person who is At Fault even though they did not have insurance. They are still the responsible party whether or not they had insurance. Good Luck though.

∙ 16y agoLegally the the "At Fault party" is responsible whether or not they have insurance. If the owner of the Not At Fault vehicle has PIP on his policy, his company will be able to pay some of the cost but you'll have to file a claim on the owners policy if they have the PIP coverage. The owner of the "Not At Fault" vehicle is "Not" responsible for the medical bills because he is not at fault.
