Default Got hit the other day...

Well I was taking one of my room mates to the bank when a guy coming out of the ENTRANCE of a mcdonalds, doesn't look and hits the side of me. I dont know what he was thinking since the mcdonalds is on a blind corner which is why they have the seperate entrance and exits. Well it cracked my front bumper, need a new fender, a new door, a new rear fender, and popped my tire. Insurance said it was $4600 worth of damage, but they havent looked at the frame or under the car yet which makes me worry.

Sad to hear that a beautiful car was ran into... I always said that i'm not the one that needs to be careful when driving (although I do), it's the other people you have to worry about. So many people just don't care to bother taking the split second to check around them. Hope he had insurance!

That's super badass, bro.

That sucks about the damage. What did the other driver have to say about it?

My dad has been taking care of the insurance, so im not 100 percent sure of everything on that end. It was 100 percent his fault and yeah he has insurance. I got out of the car and pounded my fists on the hood yelling "F--- , F---, F---" lol so the guy knew i was pissed lol. He really couldnt say anything other than sorry, he had an integra and his front end was completely gone. I'm guessing his bumper got caught between the door and the fender in that big dent and ripped his bumper and headlights completely off. He was also leaking coolant everywhere as well so he got most of the damage thankfully

Dude you have no luck with your car do you? haha cuz didnt you hit a deer last year?

Idk what I would do if this happened to me haha, i may come out swinging.

Did it damage your hood?

Hope his insurance covers all of it, you may be able to get your whole car painted out of this one haha

Wow man..very sorry to hear that!! That's one of those things we've all feared at some point with these toys, but when it actually happens it must really sting

yeah i hit a deer about a year or so ago, the hood seems to be good, it got towed up to my dads work so i havent seen it since the accident but the hood was good. hopefully i can get my whole car painted but we'll see. It definitely sucks, but it does make me appreciate the power of my car when i have to drive something else lol. I was pretty heated up, but i think i handled it well
