I would imagine he will be charged leaving the scene and in MO if there is over $1000.00 in damage it is a class d Felony . thats a worse charge than the BWI.

My wife and I had 65 years combined working for the largest P&C carrier in the US. Stupid is not a reason for denial. That's defined as accidental. Fraud is a reason for denial, and you would be surprised how many times those get paid too because proving it is a biotch. You can total your car being DUI, you were stupid, you will get cancelled by the company, but it is not fraud or intentional damage so the insurance pays.

Not likely as long as he files a report at some point. The law does not define the time frame of when report must be filed.

So how did the driver get to shore? Did he swim? Let’s talk about implication. Who witnessed the accident, when was it reported? Leaving a vessel of that worth floating upside down not only stinks, but is a complete disregard for public safety. And we have a moderator stating he would be lips sealed if it were him? This whole story stinks.

Otherwise, I’d recommend you gain advice on how to fix your f-ups from your attorney! Again, glad no one was seriously injured.....which is the most important part of any accident!
