A family member was recently a victim of a hit and run on her parked car. We know there is evidence that is easy to get, but MPI is refusing to work with us.

A police report was filed, there were eye witnesses, the suspect visited a weed store, got carded there, bought weed, and then performed the hit and run in full view of their camera system with their plate fully visible. The weed store knows who it is.

However, MPI is showing little interest in actually investigating, and this means the victim will have to pay the $200 deductible for something that wasn’t their fault and is easily solvable. They keep pressuring MPI at every call that there is evidence and they just have to go get it (as I actually walked into the weed store to ask questions and asked them to keep aside the video evidence, one of their employees was also hit), but so far they have done nothing.

Does anyone know of a process that would push MPI to actually investigate such a thing? TIA

    MPI is notoriously bad for this sort of thing. All you can really do is stay on their case. I called them daily for over a month once before they finally got sick of me and did something.

    Say what you will about private insurance, at least this sort of thing is handled better.
