Hey Chris, the answer is to read this - http://www.magistratescourt.wa.gov.au/_files/Civil_factsheet_1.pdf you will probably want to do a Minor case claim so no lawyers are involved. You will want to make sure the Police Report clears you of responsibility - did they charge the other bloke?

To start go to this link and press 'New Document' https://www.justice.wa.gov.au/mconlineforms/ The challenge will be getting the address of the other driver. By law they had to give it to you, if you let the police know that you didnt get it and need it for filing the claim they should be able to provide it.

Here is another resource if you want to get a resultion prior to court - make sure you send the letter by registered post - http://www.legalaid.wa.gov.au/informationaboutthelaw/carsanddriving/accidents/documents/sample%20 letter%20 party%20 not%20 insured.pdf
