Interesting question. Since the both of you are uninsured, the person who is At Fault should pay for the majority of damages incurred. Keep in mind that they can only pay in good faith, If not, you can file a lawsuit, however if the police were not called, this will make it even harder.

But drivers should be prepared to present proof of coverage for the vehicles they are driving; when requested by law enforcement officials and other drivers after an accident.
