I feel like you would have been better off just locking up the brakes and hitting the other car....probably would have done less damage, the drunk driver would have been there drunk, and there probably would have been huge skid marks proving that you locked up your brakes and the guy pulled out in front of you.

O well, you live and you learn.
Tough to go against natural instincts. I'm pretty sure most people would have tried to avoid the accident like he did but when you think about it your probably right.

Does your premium go up since the drunk got away?

I would think the premium would go up if there is no proof and it looks like he just ran off the road.

but I dont know, im not an insurance agent

Man, you should have got out and beat his face in with a car door. I'd go borderline murder mode if someone wrecked my car.

Try putting 10k into it....

ive got a blower, 03 alum block pi motor, and a built auto, long tubes, 3.73s, bolt ons

my cars value is basically nothing but ive got like 10k of parts in it so if it got wrecked I would be in the mood to kill someone if it was their fault

That sucks, I probably would have slammed the brakes and pounded him, that way it's his fault.

sorry for your loss, glad your fine though... stupid irresponsible people, I would have dropped it a gear and punched it (if my reaction time was quick enough) we shouldn't be second guessing you though... anyways I hope the catch the driver and nail him good

I dont see how speeding up would help the situation any..

Poor mustang atleast they gave you a nice chunk of change though!
