Call your insurance carrier IMMEDIATELY. Even though the accident was three years ago, you will still be covered by the insurance that you had in effect at the time. Even though someone else was driving the car, you are legally responsible for their negligence, if any. Your insurance carrier will hire attorneys to defend you in the lawsuit and pay any judgment that might be entered against you up to the limits of your insurance policy.
