Re: auto accident
Kentucky law requires you carry liability insurance on your car, whether it is raining or not. You were negligent per se. Duty; Breach of Duty; Cause of injury and damages resulted. The statute of limitations is 2 years from the date of the occurrence or two years the injured party received a voluntary payment from his uninsured motorists coverage.
