Accident with no insurance in Richmond: what still applies
Not having insurance does not mean you are on your own. Doctors can treat you, and some providers work with patients who cannot pay upfront. Being uninsured does change how a claim works, so it helps to know the main rules early.
Under California's Proposition 213, an uninsured driver generally cannot recover pain and suffering damages from the other driver, even when the other driver caused the crash. Passengers and pedestrians are not affected by that rule, and medical costs and lost wages can still be recoverable in some cases. This is general information, not legal advice.
Steps if you have no insurance
- Get medical care now. Delaying treatment can make injuries worse and harder to document.
- Tell providers you are uninsured and ask about no upfront cost and payment plan options.
- Report the crash to the DMV (SR-1) within 10 days if there was an injury or more than $1,000 in damage.
- Keep every bill, record and photo.
- Ask us about clinics in Contra Costa County that see uninsured patients.

Frequently asked questions in Richmond
Can I see a doctor after an accident in Richmond if I have no insurance?
Yes. Emergency rooms must stabilize you regardless of insurance, and we help you find clinics and doctors in Contra Costa County who treat uninsured accident victims, often with no upfront payment.
What happens if I was driving without insurance in California?
You may face a fine, and a rule that limits your ability to recover pain and suffering damages. A ticket for no proof of insurance is separate from your medical care, and you should still get checked by a doctor.
Does a passenger without insurance have a claim?
Often yes. The no-insurance limits apply to drivers, so a passenger's options are usually different. A short call with an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
Do I need insurance or a lawyer to get help?
No. We help uninsured, undocumented, and unrepresented accident victims in Richmond. Our service is free to use.
