How to store imageable_id and imageable_type in photos table Laravel?

I have three tables in my database(users,cars and photos).

Users Table

enter image description here

Cars Table

enter image description here

Photos Table

enter image description here

My Models:

User.php

public function photo() {
    return $this->morphOne('App\Models\Photo', 'imageable');
}
public function cars() {
    return $this->hasMany('App\Models\Car', 'user_id');
}

Car.php

public function user() {
    return $this->belongsTo('App\Models\User');
}
public function photo() {
    return $this->morphOne('App\Models\Photo', 'imageable');
}

Photo.php

protected $path = '/storage/images/';

public function getFileAttribute($file) {

    return $this->path . $file;

}

public function imageable() {
    return $this->morphTo();
}

My Controller@store:

$input = $request->all();
    $user = Auth::user();
    if ($file = $request->file('photo_id')) {
        $name = time() . $file->getClientOriginalName();
        $file->move('storage/images', $name);
        $photo = Photo::create(['file' => $name]);
        $input['photo_id'] = $photo->id; 
    }
    $user->cars()->create($input);
    return back();

Imageable_id and imageable_type aren't storing. Just NULL. Why? How to store it?

You're not using the relationship when you create the photo.

$photo = Photo::create(['file' => $name]);

It should be:

$photo = $user->photo()->create(['file' => $name]);

Also, $user->cars()->create(...) instead of $user->cars->create(...)
