If the individual has damaged your vehicle in a hit and run you accident hopefully you first called the law enforcement officer so that they could write up an police report. If you know who the other party is it would seem that the hit and run motorist was caught or found after the incident. The police would normally try to obtain the at-fault driver’s auto insurance information and put it on the report.
According to the Texas insurance regulator site if another driver refuses to inform you the name of his or her insurance carrier, obtain a copy of the police accident report. The accident report should show the other party’s name and insurance carrier. You can report the driver’s refusal to the law enforcement if the police did not investigate the accident. This will result in a police report identifying the other party’s insurance carrier.
Plus, the TX Department of Public Safety keeps forms that show the insurance carriers of people convicted of driving uninsured in Garland and anywhere else in the state of Texas.
