Parveen Kr. Aggarwal (Advocate) 24 December 2009
Yes. You can file a claim petition under sections 166 or 163-A of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 claiming compensation from the truck driver and also its owner. The expiry of insurance cover of your car is not material.

Mr. Praveen is right.
(Insurance of your car would have relevence in case of a claim against you. )
