So far...worse day owning my Corolla S

[mideda]

Well today I had my drill weekend with the military and I usually park way out because I don't want any door dings. After parking my car way out, I was walking into work when i heard this truck smack into a car. I was about 15 feet away and as I turned around I was thinking "Hope to God thats not my car". I looked and my car was pushed 2 feet out of its spot. Here is the pic of the damage.



worse day ever!

Wtf the guy didn't see it? That sucks. Hopefully he doesn't try anything stupid to get out paying you for the damage.

Looks like the damage was just to that one panel; Should be fairly easy for the dealership to fix.

I asked him the same thing "you didnt see my car"? he "claims" his breaks got stuck...I think he could have had a sticky gas pedal lol

That looks like bumper damage only, should be easily fixed, but it could mean a new bumper. The bumper repair products on the market today are quite good.

His brakes got stuck? Last week I was parked in a shopping mall waiting for my wife, no one around me, when all of as sudden this guy in a Ford truck smacks right into the concrete barrier surrounding the huge lamp post. But he was texting. What a funny sight!

All the Ranger had to show for this was a 6 inch scratch on the chrome bumper

lol fords. If his brake pedal was stuck why not shift it into neutral?

No cell phone laws in N.S.? I know Edmonton was cracking down on people.

I was rear ended and the bumper cover was tor and a metal bracket had to be replaced. The claim was about $3000.

great!! im looking forward to this...good thing his insurance is covering this

[Kiwi-Corolla]

Oh no, not another one!

Sorry to hear about the crash. There have been a few happening lately, including to my own car. As others have said, the damage doesn't look serious so they should sort it out fairly quickly.

Best of luck with getting it restored to its former glory!

hahaha just like 45 mins ago at McDonalds i saw a big SUV reverse and hit another parked car.. i bet their excuse was "it's too dark" since its night time.

When they replace your bumper see if you can have them get rid of the butt crack! Turn a negative into a positive.

A least you were able to see and catch the guy. I would bet money if no one saw him he would have just left.
