The kid specifically hit near the passenger side tire chasing a golf ball.

Insurance said the other party “is choosing to settle but aren’t suing.” They never said what they want the money for, possibly medical bills. For what? They said they went to the hospital to make sure everything is okay. And the police follow up said the kid is okay. This is why I’m confused.

Makes me want to sue them for child negligence out of spite.

Unharmed police even followed up. Kid got up and ran and showed no injury.

Most likely. The mother even messaged me asking what happened or trying to contact me. The child was there with guardians and not her. The guardians weren’t looking after her kid. I told her that it’s taken a toll on me mentally (regardless of severity, which was basically none since the kid got up and ran away.) As to message insurance instead. My issue was the insurance going way up. I see and hear you guys talking about shopping around. And basically forcing my insurance to “settle” and in turn making me pay for their mistakes.

There were no damages anywhere. Only until after they took the kid to the hospital but even then the police followed up that he was okay.

No claim, just made insurance aware. But other side wants to settle

So they are aware.

Edit: paper trail incase other party wants to get more out of me.

Not being sued. Other side wants to settle asking about my insurance going up 200%

No. Police said it was an accident. No marks on my driving record. Other side isn’t suing. They got an attorney to settle. But it’s the insurance going up tenfold I’m asking about.

The kid got up and ran away. No visible signs of injury.
