While your personal policy may not cover your injuries directly if you weren't driving your own vehicle, it's crucial for them to be aware of the incident. Your policy might offer medical payments (MedPay) coverage or uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage that could apply in certain situations. Additionally, transparency with your insurer can prevent future issues. However, avoid giving a detailed statement about fault without first consulting with a personal injury attorney.",
