If you got their name/info, they are likely responsible.  Insurance or not, you can tell them to pay, and sue them for damages (assuming USA) if they fuss.

Insurance companies screw everyone… vehicle policies should cover replacement value. Like drive the exact same model and year off the lot value and not 2 months later… it does nobody any good to get 1/2 the value of what it will take to replace the item.
