Confused hit a car with a golf ball

i was playing golf in a golf course and hit a car with a golf ball. the car was parked at a apt. which was adjacent to the golf course. i was wondering if the damage on the car was all my responsibility and i need to pay all or the car owner shares some resposibility for himself.

thank you

Normally you are responsible. Many courses and near-by buildings do have insurance in place to cover it so check that as well if the issue cannot be resolved.

I saw this below just FYI:



If you do not know who the person is that hit the ball into your car's back glass, then you can ask the golf course if their insurance will pay for your damages but typically this would be excluded.

If you are in the position of not knowing who hit the golf ball into your vehicle and if the golf course will not take responsibility for the damages then you will likely need to put in a claim with your physical damages portion of your insurance policy.

Comprehensive coverage will normally cover glass breakage. You will need to pay the deductible associated with this coverage (unless you are in a state that waives the deductible for glass replacement) but would be able to get your back glass repaired or replaced.
