Really? Wtf.

Recommended Posts

Friday morning I was rear ended... The second time i've been hit in 6 months. Does my car have a freakin "HIT ME" sign on it or what?

 

The really bad part about this one, was the guy had a beer can in his car, was stumbling around, and peed himself a little bit right in front of the cops.

 

IT WAS 8:40 AM! Who drinks that early in the f'n morning?????

 

Wtf is wrong with people????

He was like, in his late 40s... If it was a young guy I wouldve understood that a little better... Haha... The damage isnt too bad, probably around $1000 to fix it... I think it fucked me up more than my car, I was at a dead stop waiting to turn, and he was going around 50 mph.... Its just annoying... The only good part about being hit this time is the guy apparently has insurance, so I wont be paying to get my shit fixed this time.

you got hit from a stop at 50mph and theres a thousand dollars of damage? ide say you got lucky as hell because my mom got rear ended in the same situation, except the car behind her was only doing 35 and it ended up doing 3 grand in damage

When I was hit before, it was 2G in damage... It doesn't look as bad this time, but I haven't had anyone get in there and really look at it yet either. Im still not sure how its not very bad, but the guy said at the minimum he was going 50. He was just getting off 70 at hilliard rome, so I dont doubt he was going that quick. His car was f'd up. It wouldnt even start after he hit me...

Apparently the guy says he has a "medical condition" that caused him to piss himself in front of the cops when he got out of the car... He just happened to have a beer in his car when it happened... But, if he had a medical condition that caused him to stumble around like he was, the asshole shouldn't have been driving in the first place.

 

He does have insurance for sure though, and they're being idiots. I spent 40 minutes on the phone with them today, telling them that I am NOT using their body shop, and I have my own...

 

He was in the back of the cop car when I left, but im not sure what happened after that. Nothing is showing up on public records right now, but after the 12 phone calls ive got today from repair shops and doctors, I know he did get a ticket for hitting me.

 

This is just annoying.

A medical condition that caused him to wet himself?? Lol, I would have liked to hear that one! And +1, if he had a medical condition (and he's pleading it was the medication), I'm sure he shouldn't even have been driving.

 

What insurance company did he have, and who do you have? When I was both t-boned and rear ended (in an '07 Yaris I might add!), State Farm told me where to go, and not the other person's. One was uninsured, and the other one had Geico, and both times I took it to a State Farm approved collision center.

 

Did you exchange information with this guy? (do you know who he is?).

 

PS... In the event of being rear ended in a Yaris, did you know the back bumper fits nicely in the back seat?

Lol, I didn't know that about the back bumper, but it is good to know :) Thanks! Haha.

 

One of the POs got all of his information for me, so I do know who he is. He's actually a one of our regulars at work I found out... awesome.

 

He has progressive, but even though it is just a yaris, I'm picky about where I take my car... I just don't like feeling pressured to take it somewhere i'm not comfortable with.

 

Oh well. Poor little yaris. :(

Ha-ha. I've got 97k on mine right now and runs great! Of course... has a new door and fender... bumper... trunk, etc... I took mine to Collision 1 on Westerville rode ride south of Cooper road. They do good work (both times and a third when they replaced the window when it was broken in to).

 

When I was rear ended the bumper was basically half on... so I ripped it off the rest way and yup, folded right up in the back seat!

I just hit 23k on mine, and this will be the second time the rear bumper has been replaced in the past 6 months. I went to Rifes autobody before, they did an amazing job on my car, and really helped me out with everything since it was my first wreck... I'll probably go there again... i finally got through to progressive that they aren't going to force me to use whatever shop they have. I know its just a Yaris, but its my yaris. Lol.

 

Thats awesome that you can fit the bumper back there... Everyone always laughs at how small my back seat is, but its bigger than it looks apparently.. lol. :)

i drive by there daily on my way to work, and theyve ALWAYS got cars in there. a lot of higher end cars too. ive never stopped to find out which ones are done, caus im sure they're gone as soon as they do, but it looks like one of those hole in the wall places that does good work. theyve got like what...4 bays? lol
