Legal Question in Personal Injury in Texas

I live in the state of TX. My car was totaled by another driver. The value of my car is $15K but I owe $19K. Can I sue the driver's insurance company to get the $4K difference. If yes, what actions should I take?

No, the amount owed is not relevant when determining how much to pay for the total loss damages.
