Some prick reversed into my passenger side door a few hrs ago in a 7eleven parking lot and now I'm pissed :hitler:. After he hit my car, he stopped to look at me before he pulled off. But luckily there was a cop car parked in the same lot to chase that fucker down. After catching up to him, I found out that he was wasted and got thrown in back of a cop car for DUI. So now I'm left with a nice dent on my car.
This is my first time being in an accident and I'm not too sure what to do. I hope some of you here might be able to help me.
I have all the information of the guy who hit me and a case number since it was DUI case. I was thinking about calling my insurance tomorrow morning but I think I might just call them now. When I spoke to one of the officer, he told me that more than likely the insurance wont handle the case since he was wasted and that I would have to settle things out in court. I was wondering if this is true and if anyone have any information about DUI accidents vs ordinary accidents.
He also told me that if the insurance company do handle the case, they will probably just claim it as totaled and pay be the value of the vehicle. I really don't want that to happen cause I do enjoy driving my little m42 and the fact that I spent a decent amount fixing and replacing parts.
I'm not sure where to go from here so I would appreciate any advice/tips. I apologize for my poor grammar(tired and pissed), I shall fix it tomorrow.
Here are a few shots that I just took.
