i had liability for 3 years and havent gotten into accidents. (thank god) and now my dad got me full coverage cuz i now have a new car.
sad poart is that my friend backed up into me yesterday. u can only c the damage if u know its there. so ill just have to live with it. people have also hitten me in the doors
I'm no worse for the wear i guess... couple of slices and some airbag rash, ill live.
The cop asked if i wanted an ambulance, i said no, i cant afford one, and i have ahd worse. she said ok, but she will call one anyways. she said i didnt have to go with them but she is reqired by state law to call them if there is more than $500 damage to any vehcile in a pileup. i ended up being fine..minus these:
somebody help me, i need better *BLEEP*ing luck than this!
ill take pix of the devastation as soon as i go pick up the car, i had to wait for the cops to clear out. when she arived she asked which tow truck i wanted, i said "none". she said i couldnt drive it, i said, i have driven worse, i only live a few blocks away. she said she was calling a tow truck, i told her she could call it if she wanted but the guy wasnt going to get paid, cause i have $42 in the bank.
so she said, "do you have a way to get it home? cause its not street legal, if you are seen driving it home you will receive a citation." i said i knew that and that my dad was coming with a pickup.
as soon as i get back there, guess what, i am driving it home. the last time i paid one of theire rotation wreckers, it was $285 for 3 miles, i am NOT doing that *BLEEP* again, i cant. i havent the funds.
