QUESTION
Can I sue if I was rear ended and the driver refuses to talk to his insurance, so they won't pay my claim?

More details to this question:
The driver who hit me left before police arrived to fill out the report. He hasn't responded to the police calls or his insurance and his insurance won't pay my claim until they talk to him and get his statement. Can I take him to court?

You would be best advised to consult with an attorney before your claim is compromised. The insured's non-cooperation can lead to issues that you would prefer to head off. The importance of representation is particularly true if you are concerned with a personal injury claim and not just a property damage claim. If it is an insignificant matter, then putting everything through your own insurance would be the best course.
