You likely need to go through the other driver's insurance company. Most likely scenario is they paid on the claim and are looking for reimbursement, which you or owner of car will unfortunately be responsible for if there was no coverage at the time. They may be willing to take less than they paid and/or take a payment plan. Time is key as you do not want your license suspended. Unfortunate situation, but good luck.
