If an accident is not being investigated by a police officer and results in damage to property (greater than $1000), injury or death, under the Texas law it is required by the driver to file a crash report within ten days of the accident. For the determination of everyone’s safety, each driver has to exchange vehicle, insurance, and personal information with the other drivers and get any witnesses’ name and contact info.
If the insurance company and the car owner cannot come to an agreement regarding the claim, then the owner may file a lawsuit to pursue damages. For personal injury or property damage complaint, the deadline for filing the lawsuit is two years from the date of the car accident.
