Not at fault car accident
Ok so here's the story here.
I was driving down a three lane road (6 lanes if you include the oncoming lanes). I was in the far left lane, and was the only car heading in the same direction for at least a hundred yards or more both behind and in front of me. As I was crossing an intersection, another car was turning on to the road I was on from the intersection. He crossed all lanes of traffic in to my lane causing me to slam on my brakes, and I had to swerve on to the center median to avoid collission. I have already had it inspected by a mechanic and have been told that I will need a new tire, rim, and strut. Estimating around $1100.
I have already filed a claim with the other drivers insurance company. I spoke with the adjuster, and they have gathered witness statements as well as the police report that was filed. The only thing they haven't been able to do is get a hold of their insured driver that caused the accident. The adjuster even said that everything is pointing to their insured driver being at fault. I am in desperate need of rental vehicle to get to work. I have been relying on rides from co-workers, but I won't be able to do that for much longer. The adjuster told me they can't make any payments until they get a hold of their insured driver which they have 7 days to do. Is this correct? I was under the assumption that they are required to provide me with transportation until the matter is resolved.
FYI this happened in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Thanks for taking the time to answer this question.
