Got hit from behind, Thats what i get for stopping for pedest Options

[BlackCelicaGT94]

I was cruising the Downtown Kirkland blvd and stopped infront of that quickie mart for a pedestrian and some girl in a Ford Escort hit me from behind. I get out and was like WTF then i look and was suprised that there wasnt more damage...so shes like oh it looks fine and im like umm yeah we will wait and find out if its fine. I was nice to her cuz i know how it feels to be in here place. but this sucks..this isnt what i needed. My past week has sucked and I didnt need this especially since I was planning on showing at Global Import Car Show...

Then i get home and notice its not just scratches all over the bumper but The bumper is not aligned nor is the middle piece between my taillights.

I like how she thinks it probably will only need some touch up paint.


The thing is that my neck hurts so I dont know what to do...Does whiplash go away in a few days? Is it worth trying to get some money?

elvasohexia...thats not enough. Get his insurance policy number, company number, their name, adress, licence #, phone number, pretty much, if its on their lisence or on their insurance card, write it down.

back to the topic at hand.
That sucks 2 hear nat. I would say take it 2 a body shop, see how much it will cost to repair, get them 2 check it out(ur rebar, bumper cover, bumper, compression pads, and that center section). My buddy was drivin his cav some guy reversed into him when he was in nutral and his car got bumped and hit a pole and cracked his front lip. he got it checked out, the whole lip had to be ditched, foam under the bumper cover had to be replaced and lip repainted. And about ur neck. it depends on how hard u were hit. When i was in my accident i was duin roughly 50km/h(30mph give or take) and the guy hit me duin close to 100km/h(60mph) and i braced my self and i was hurtin for about 3 weeks. Its comin up on a month since the accident and my neck still hurts a bit at times. my gf got minor whiplash and she was hurtin for about a week n a half. Tell ur insurance company about it. They will usually give u coverage for lost wages and pay for massage thearapy, and i mean common. Who would turn down free money and free massages? Hope ur feelin better though nat, and hopefully the celi is ok 2. Dont put off gettin in contact with ur insurance company and gettin checked out.
