I hit a 1986 Toyota Corolla with a U-Haul moving truck 2 months ago. I was not covered under my husband's insurance at the time of the accident. The owner initially agreed to let me pay $100 a month for 12 months to cover the $1200 damage, but now the nephew claims to be the owner and is threatening to take me to court if I don't pay the full amount within 2 weeks. I'm in Illinois Cook County. What should I do, and can the judge put a hit and run on my record if we go to court?
