I was in an auto accident and pretty much nothing was done?

It sounds like something slipped through the cracks...the 16 year old could of been charged with DWI..all of the essential elements appear to be there. Due to the significance of the accident (children/schoobus), the primary focus was obviously on children and not the violator. All the Officer would have needed to do was to determine if the violator was "Impaired".

Did you hit your head? Any possible broken bones, internal injuries.  Yes, I would say you should go to a doctor to make sure everything is operating normally.

The car that rear ended you has insurance. If it was considered by the cars insurance company that you had caused the accident by driving unlawfully or what ever it is reasonable to ask why the insurance company are not requiring you to pay for the damage to the car that rearended you I would be seeking advice from a solicitor it seems like they are bluffing you.

Most states a report has to be filed within 24-72hrs of the accident otherwise no claim has to be paid.  This allows evidence, documentaion, etc to be collected.  It also allows there to be shown a connection between an accident and the injury.

It it is still keep, you would have to go to the police department that did the accident report and see if they have a copy of it still. ( it is very possible it would not be available any longer)\n\nYou can also check with the auto insurance company and see if they have any records on it still.

I was told when debris is on the roadway and damages your vehicle it is considered "an act of god" I'd contact a lawyer in your state

Yes, I was hit by a drunk driver who left me for dead. He was only tracked down because an eye witness came forward. I hired an attorney because I had extensive medical bills, lost my job and my car was totaled. My attorney told me that I did not need to appear because they would be taking testimony from the other side and I would be called the following week. Unbeknownst to me, though, the attorney made a deal with the other side citing that I didn't bother to show up in court. All told, the guy walked away scot free and the attorneys took everything.

We need to know the circumstances. Are there unpaid fines? Was your DL revoked? Sometimes you have to hire an attorney to reinstate your driving privileges.

It depends even when the other person admitted they were at fault their incurance will try and prove your injuries were not from the accident. They don't want to pay you, thats how they make money. Time for a settlement can be a few months or a few years. Lawyers are helpful in getting you what you need but the cost can be astronomical. Consult with a lawyer and your finances BEFORE making a decision.

It was an accident.  File it under insurance.

As I found out after I was hit by a bus (Yes, ouch.) the insurance company does their thing and gets as much money for you as they can.  After that you can take them to court for any remaining loses or out of pocket expenses, and for the amount of money you're talking about it would be in Small Claims Court in California, check your locale for local rules.  No lawyers are allowed there, you're on your own.  Go to the county courthouse and/or its website for instructions. Remember, you have to show REAL damage, not just being angry or wanting to hurt them.  Think about it first, or the Judge will make you feel like an idiot.

Ouch! When no void comes to a settlement with insurance, your best best would get a injury lawyer.  In most case you will WIN and don't have to pay a lawyer one cents.  Check with the law bar in San Fransico and ask the clerk to find you good rate lawyer who wins win.  Hopefully they will have someone contact you.  Good luck, i would file, because I had to in the past when I was in a car accient and it was the cop fault.  Had to sue the city!

The owner of a car is not legally responsible for accidents that happen with it, just the driver, unless there was some sort of contributory negligence, like you knew the breaks didn't work and didn't tell him, etc. The title's kind of irrelevant.
