The answer on property damage would depend upon the provisions in your lease.
However, if you have been injured due to another's negligence from this high property damage accident, you have a potential case against the driver and owner of the vehicle and possible UM/UIM if such coverage is available to you.
A Personal Injury attorney can investigate this matter and determine all possible responsible parties and insurance coverages including any available 1st party coverage rather than pursuing on your own.
Choose an experienced professional to guide and advise you and evaluate your claim if injured. However, if you are interested in consulting with one of us, you will have to reach out, as attorneys are unable to directly solicit on this forum.
