Got hit at work today, lady drove off.

[kustom play]

hit and runs will get your insurance dropped and you will become uninsurable

no company will want to take you on as a risk, and if they do it would be like a 400 dollar a month charge

With cameras everywhere there might be a chance that Best Buy had the parking lot covered. Chances are that the other person isn't insured. You can still get your money it will take a little more work. Give the hero $50.

.... I got the tag number. The investigation on my part ends there I gave him a good deal on some phones. Best Buy didn't have it on camera though, I was parked out of view. Atleast I know where to park now after it happened the security guy came to me and said "park here, and we will keep an eye on it for you."

sorry to hear about your car. some old guy who was either drunk or falling asleep ran me off the road on my way home today. i was blaring the horn forever and i dont think he heard a thing,lol. i would really hate to see that paint job go away. your lb is my favorite one on the forum besides garm.

Sorry to hear about your car...

I was very close to getting a flat paint job, but I received lots of warnings from the painter. He basically said that flat paints (particularly darker tones) will make the car look dirty quite more often than on glossy paints, since you will be able to see scratches and smudges a lot more easily.

Not that I don't think a flat paint job looks bad... I think it would look great, at least at first.

I guess i can make the car wound go away for a 5-6 times w/ the woman....maybe NOt...

7+ can be done in the Yaris, why just the van.....remember the threads of having sex in a Yaris by people....LOL

And it goes up as well if you're involved in an accident when you're NOT at fault. Now THAT's immoral.

I think you're confusing "no fault" with "not at fault". In a "no fault" insurance, everyone assumes their equal share of the accident, which is payable by your provider (regardless of who blew the red light, etc.) When you're "not at fault", it is the other party who pays for all costs, including the deductible.


Best not to spread false information to the un-wise around here.

Well to be completely precise, your statement isn't completely true either, no offense.

I can only speak for California, but if you get hit for example in a parking lot, you get there and find your car damaged by someone but cannot provide the other guy's info, then your premium will go up. Same thing if someone hits you and run, and you don't get their plate #, at least that's my understanding.

[Kioshi]

lol you live in california and you dont know that? ^^^^

I think a lot of people confuse Flat paint jobs versus Satin paint jobs. Flat paint jobs do look like crap and lend to your car looking more dirty than anything. If in the sun a lot the flat black actually start to look like a dark gray in other words it fades over a short amount of time.

Satin paint jobs are what you see alot of people do to their hot rods and bikes. Satin has a very small amount of clear on it which protects the paint and gives it a small amount of shine. Flat paint does not have any clear in it what-so-ever. In theory flat paints are also harder to clean since there is no clear.

I use to work in the Paint Department at Home Depot.

that sucks.
i didn't read it but what was her age? sounds like a story where I saw this lady drive her stupid cadillac reversing it right into a beautiful classic MG or triumph i think it was, luckily it's real metal hah and then drove off before I could cellphone pic her license. the guy came out later and i told him, he was so bummed. who was driving? a lady that could barely see straight who was near 85 something... I for one believe everyone should have to retake the driver skills&rules test every 10 or 15 years or something. people are stupid and should be allowed to drive
