In a short answer, yes you can sue the person who hit you in a car accident.

However, filing a lawsuit is a course of action taken later on
if their insurance does not offer proper compensation for damage or loss.

After an accident, you should work on filing a claim against their insurance
with an attorney who can help you gather proper information.

Most cases are resolved through claims with insurance companies.

When insurance companies decide not to payout the amount required for damages,
consult an attorney who can aid you in filing a lawsuit to pursue the proper compensation.

If the driver who hit you does not have insurance
or their policy limits do not fully cover the total damages,
then a claim should be filed with your insurance
under uninsured motorist and collision coverage.

If uninsured motorist coverage is not a part of your insurance plan,
you can sue the at-fault driver if they have any assets,
but there is no guarantee that you can recover the funds required to pay for damages,
which may result in out-of-pocket expenses.

It is important to contact an attorney to help you understand your options.
