Sh!tty. Did you file a claim with insurance or is the cost to fix it gonna be lower than the deductible? I almost got rear ended the other night. Some guy just got backs on his Yukon and was messin with them and next thing I know hes screeching tryin to stop before my truck did.

my uninsured/underinsurance protection should take careof everything as far as cost go-in dallas they have started to tow cars that have wrecks with no insurance. if you drive you should have insurance.accidents will happen sooner or later

that sux. in indiana they can take someone with out insurance to jail or they can lose their license. the law here says everyone MUST have at least liability insurance.

hope you get it fixed

I would take the idiot that hit you to small claims court. If you were rear ended you automatically win - make 'em pay!
