Probably not. Depends on the coverage. Most likely even if it was covered, you would only hurt yourself reporting it due to rate hikes after something like that.

Depending on company, you may or may not need a police report to file a claim.
I was hit by a guy with All State. No police report, just gave me his name and info. They took care of it all plus some. I've delt with so many crappy companies, it was nice to see a place that handled a claim the way they did.

i just assume with how bad the average insurance company dicks people around that they would want a report.

both of those things are the reasons i would say insurance wouldnt cover it. especially bein over the limit. i doubt they cover it but i guess if they never find out that he was drinkinthen maybe he will get lucky. he shouldnt have left though. its hard to say, wait and find out.
