I was rear ended a couple of weeks ago. I was waiting for traffic to clear to take a left and a kid ran into me sending my car 50 ft down the road while my foot was on the brake. Luckily nobody was seriously injured. This accident was 100% his fault but since I live in Michigan I'm running into some problems. So far the insurance is paying for medical and car repair, but they only pay for $15 per day in a rental car - which is costing me $24 per day. I asked my insurance company if there is anyway I can get the rest of the rental covered by the other party and they said "no" because of MI no fault. By the time my car is repaired, the rental is going to cost me $200-$300 and it really upsets me because this accident was completely his fault. I realize that this is not a ton of money to some people, but we are struggling as it is and I would much rather spend this money on the basics of family life. I heard about a Michigan mini tort but know nothing about it, or if it can even help me...does anyone have any advise?
