I just had a accident this afternoon, when I left the mall, I turned right, I stopped to make sure there was no car coming, and a car turned left to go into the mall, and he turned badly and hit my drive door, he didnt know so he kept accelerate, push my car, I was so mad, but I couldnt do anything besides sitting inside of my car. And after the old man hit my car, he kept saying it nothing. But it scratched my car so bad, and my door also have a cave. And he kept saying it's my fault, because I was too close to the left. I was so mad, I showed him that everyone can turn without hitting my car. Because I've never had a accident before, so I didnt ask his policy number, I just had his name, phone number and license plate number. Later, I called my insurence company, they wanted me to call the old chinese man to ask his policy number, then I did. But that old shit didnt want to give me, he said he didnt have to do that. And I told him if he didnt give me his policy number, I am going to call police, tell them that you "hit & run". And he said I am only a child, the police would not listen to me. I was so mad angry . I went to body shop first to ask about the price, it's about 1200 to fix it. After that when I going to go to the police station, FARMERS (that old man's insurence company) called me, and asked me the situation and the price to fix it, and he said he's going to call me back. So I didnt go to the police station. Now I am still mad, not only mad about the accident, but also the stupid chinese old man's attitude. I dont have digital camera, so I cant show you guys my car.

Tell me about it, i had a similar accident sometime last yr where some stupid middle aga lady reversed her SUV into my driver side door while i was in the car. Made a fat ass dent to my door, lucky for her my window still works. I quickly took down ALL here info and she was so much in shock that she decided to pay for all the damages in cash because she probably didnt want to deal wit insurance. I over heard from her husband that she had a serious accident before hand. I feel you man.

That sucks...always call the cops & file a report. If the person doesn't want the cops involved, then you have them sign a piece of paper where they claim full responsibility for all the damage to your car.

Yes, it is. Because I speak chinese with him, he doesnt know English well, so he kept saying not to call police.

You should've called the cops immediately after the accident, that way the cops would come to the scene.

He hit your car (his front end to your driver's side: he is at fault) A cop would write him a ticket for "Failure to stop to avoid an accident", and plus, you usually need a police report to file a claim in such matters, so you got lucky. Insurance company would want to settle out of court, rather than get lawyers & go to court; it costs more. so instead they settle with you and save money.

old guy gets an insurance hike as well.

best of all, you get your car fixed by his insurance company. trust me, your car will be as good as new when they're done with it at the shop.

everything will work out; I've been there before wink
