Vehicle Damage

The police said the damage to the 2007 Polaris 4 Wheeler with Kansas license plate number 0395 was not stated. It may not have been insured. So a lawyer should conduct a full insurance investigation. It was removed from the crash scene by A&D Auto Repair and taken to Police impound lot.
