On my way to class in my 740il, driving down a parking isle with no stop sign, yield sign, etc. I had the clear right away, but I came to a stop for some pedestrians crossing the street. Waaam, a local landscape truck flys out of a parking space into the front end of my car. My friend and I get out, talk to the driver and he accepts responsibility, gives me all his information, but wants me to get two quotes and he'll pay me cash avoiding an insurance claim. I called the police nonetheless, and they said they couldn't do anything because it was private property. CSB
I call him today with three estimates, $1,200 from one shop, $1,300 from another, and $600 from another who basically said they can do a bare bones job, pop out the dent, spray a little grey paint, and make it look like it never happened. The owner of this shop is a personal friend and told me the other shops saw dollar signs when they found out a company truck hit me.
So now he's saying it's not his fault, that I saw him backing up and tried to squeeze by him. I was in back of him the entire time stopped waiting for some people to cross the street, and I see him backing up. I LAY on my horn but he didnt hear it, so I tried to throw it in reverse to avoid him hitting my door and front fender, and he hits me anyways. Now he's denying all responsibility and saying we'll let our insurance companies figure out who's fault it was. I'm thinking about just saying fuck insurance and taking him to small claims, he was clearly in the wrong, admitted it and now he's denying it. Cool fucking story
It's like I drive with a target over my head. Nothing but tickets and accidents.
