Yes, you can sue for someone totaling your car. You will usually be suing your own auto insurance company, which is why it's so important to have collision coverage. You will have to pay a deductible if your policy requires it. You can recoup the cost of the deductible using the mini-tort law for up to $3,000 if the other driver was at fault. If you don't have collision coverage, you can only receive the $3,000 maximum and you'll be facing a large financial burden.
