At least he owned up to it and it will get repaired. A friend of mine let me store my GT6 at his house while I looked for a place to live when I first moved here. It stayed under a cover for the duration. When it was time to move it, I pulled the cover off and there was a big dent in the nose. No one ever owned up to it.

If he puts it through his insurance, there should be no deductible. It would be covered under the liability portion, not the collision or comprehensive. I understand your feelings, but if he is ok with submitting it to his insurance why not let him?
Don is correct. This would be a 3rd party liability claim. There is no deductible. His insurance would cover it in full. I'd submit it. Far and away the best thing to do.

Sorry to hear about the accident! And, while it seems like the issue is solved, let me say this:
NEVER cancel the Comprehensive insurance on a car, ever, until you actually get rid of it. Zero-deductible, comprehensive insurance for my currently-sidelined Pontiac costs me a whopping $6 a year. A YEAR.

Agree with keeping comp coverage on a sitting vehicle. However, while comprehensive would cover the car if it burned, flooded, etc... it wouldn't cover it in a situation like this. That's a collision claim.

About an hour after hitting a deer with my Miata, I discovered that my wife had cancelled our comprehensive coverage, saving me $32 per year.
If you happened to be outside your home at the time, perhaps you overheard our conversation...
