My legally parked car was struck in the back end by a bicyclist. Rear windshield shattered, numerous dents, scratches. He miraculously got up and took off. He wasn't wearing helmet, wouldn't wait for police or ambulance. He would not answer any questions about his name, etc. Police were unable to find him.
Since the car is 11 yrs. old we have what's required by law in Washington state. We have Liability and Underinsured motorist coverage. No Collision or Comprehensive. Insurance is unwilling to pay since the damage was by a bicycle not another vehicle or motorcycle. Does this sound right??
The car was parked in the street and he was riding the bike in the street. He was obviously not paying attention and it was nighttime.
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
