Once again someone hit me. She got ticketed for failure to yield.
Was heading straight down the road, and next thing I know a car is coming right at me from the left. Turns out she came directly into traffic, instead of yielding into the median, which my car was traversing. I attempted to dodge her, but deflected off her front passenger side into the curb which then launched my car 3 feet in the air, according to witnesses, and landing in the bike lane. I got the lasting image of myself grasping the steering wheel and looking at the sky as my last image before it slammed to the ground. Neck, back hurts. Not sure of condition of car, but pictures do not show all the damage. I don't know what to do now. I just got my 3s, and I know they'll try to salvage it again. Will have to inspect the damage later on. Bad time for a wreck, on holiday weekends, no answers til the 3rd. I've invested so much in her, and had so many plans...but people won't stop hitting me. Its scaring me out of further investments due to the value of the car. BTW, it was a brand new 2012 volks passat that hit me. Those new ones are huge, and hit like a tank...barely any damage to her car. This post has been edited by rave2n: Jan 5, 2012 - 5:24 PM |

So Geico almost towed my car to Jacksonville because they "assumed" I would just take the salvage money without purchasing back my vehicle. Luckily I caught them this morning, and it is now being towed to my house where the adjuster can actually make a call on the value instead of assuming my next course of action for me. Eat that you stupid lizard.
Still waiting on the adjuster to even look at the vehicle to determine how much they are going to write a check for. Unfortunate for them, I have receipts for all aftermarket items. Lets see if they respect them. All neck and back pain are gone, so no worries there atleast! Purchased a scooter...yay!...which will be my transportation until I get the cellie fixed and back on the road. Logically thinking, there is no reason to just scrap it and take the money. Especially with a fresh 3s waiting to be swapped. If I took the estimated 1500 bucks in cash and put it down on another vehicle. That would be idiotic. Best bet would be to fix it up, swap the engine, and sell for cost on the forums. That is...if i wanted to sell it after all that. Thinking the new plan, once all is fixed. Drive the scooter to work, only drive the cellie for special occasions. Atleast on the scooter if I get hit, there is a good chance of no recovery, so I don't have to deal with this anymore. Sorry, I'm cynical. And FYI, I'm not that damn young! Almost 30...I just type young! |
