Yes. A personal injury claim is filed against the person who caused the accident and that person's insurance company must pay. The fact that you were not covered by your own insurance policy at the time of the accident does not prevent you from making a claim.

What Creditors Cannot Seize
A fellow being chased by creditors would be smart to give his fiancee' an expensive engagement ring. She'll be thrilled, and he'll be making a safe investment, since Virginia law specifically exempts wedding and engagement rings from attachment by creditors. Lawmakers have decided that, for public policy reasons, people should keep such property in the family. Better not divorce!
A religious couple might consider investing in a Guttenberg Bible, since the law also exempts the family Bible.
Animal lovers can rest easy, too. Creditors can't take the family pet, whether it's a dog, cat, squirrel or snake. As long as the debtor does not raise the animal for sale purposes, the creditor cannot take it.
Someone facing bankruptcy might not be in the frame of mind to dwell on mortality, but it's an opportune time to purchase a burial plot. The law also exempts this property as a matter of policy. Who said you can't take it with you!!
