I totaled my car yesterday
Doesn't that suck!?! I rear-ended a guy and his car isn't even scratched. That is what happens when a car hits an SUV!! I am okay and so is the guy that I hit. But boy does it suck! I just got a lot of things fixed on my car and now they are all demolished. But I am thankful everyone is okay! I am not really going to be able to post this week. Still out of town!! :hug: :hi:

8. I'm really glad you're all right.
Sorry about your car. I rear-ended somebody a few years ago and about totaled my car and theirs was not even scratched after we brushed all my car pieces off of their bumper.

I hope you feel better soon and get through all the red tape OK. :hug:

13. Something you don't want to make a habit of.



Glad everyone came out of it relatively no worse for the wear.

14. That does suck, and I'm sorry to hear this news, Shell
thank goodness you're OK, though. Kind of a wake-up call, isn't it? :hug: Take good care of yourself, my dear.

15. glad your ok
Edited on Tue Feb-07-06 11:05 AM by LSK
I was on the other end of that a few years ago (I have an S10 blazer) and was rear ended. I was really paranoid about people rear-ending me after that for a while.

But your ok and cars can be replaced.

:hug:

20. Wait until the thankfulness that nobody got hurt wears off, and
the rage starts to seep in.

That's the sucky part.

21. Yeah, I felt a little pissed off this morning, but only at myself.

It was a situation where everyone slammed on brakes. I was the unlucky one who didn't react fast enough I guess (as was the guy I slammed into)!! Luckily for me he didn't jump out screaming his neck was hurt! He was a super nice guy. Whew!

24. Your insurance company acted surprisingly quickly
A friend was hit by an SUV a month ago and the insurance company took 3 weeks to make a decision, and two weeks for the body shop to fully assess the damages.

25. Well the body shop said it was totaled. Insurance has not sent
Edited on Tue Feb-07-06 02:14 PM by Shell Beau
a guy out to look at it, but the body shop said the damages were beyond what it is worth. They already did the estimate. Insurance is still pending of course!



On edit, I have a friend at the body shop. That helps!!
