Will my insurance rates go up after a hit and run?

Short answer

Often not, because you weren’t at fault, but it depends on your state and your insurer. Some states limit rate increases for not-at-fault claims. Ask your insurer before you file if you’re worried.

Rules differ by state. This is general information, not legal or professional advice.
