FAQ
Frequently asked
Is there a time limit to file a MACT claim?+
No — the limitation was removed in 1994. However, older cases are harder to prove; earlier is always better.
What if the offending vehicle is uninsured?+
Claims still lie against the owner and driver; in hit-and-run, the Solatium Fund provides limited compensation.
