tipptruck1 Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 I was about ready to turn in to my drive way and was waiting for a car to pass. Then I look up and see a van coming at me. Iam thinking this is going to hurt. Well he ended up hitting my rear quater panel. Theres no rear quarter panel. the frame is bent so bad I cant even open my passangers front door. my car is sitting 4 inches higher in the back right. The car is totaled its only worth like 1,000 dollers. They guy that hit me was looking at his computer and now has to go to traffic school. What surprised me is that my air bags didn't go off. But every one made it out ok. Quote
Ky_Lake_Dude Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 sorry about your car but glad to hear you are all ok Quote
MattStrykul Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 Well your airbags shouldn't have come out if he rear ended you. I believe airbags deploy only if you hit the front of the car, and if your car is only 1000 dollars I doubt there are side curtain airbags.... Quote
tipptruck1 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Posted October 9, 2007 Yea this car was a few years before side curtin air bags. I was looking at the damage and you know theres frame damage when the tire is leaning in and forward. Quote

Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted October 10, 2007 Super User Posted October 10, 2007 Id be getting paid all i can say...... sue sue. I know accidents can happen BUT being hit from behind is more then just that .This is worse then not paying attention this is like hey IM THE ONLY PERSON ON THE ROAD so ill never look in front of me .This person really does deserve to LOOSE it all .If i rear end someone i will expect to be paying for it the rest of my life and ILL make someone else do the same .im lucky i suppose but the reason for my stearn action in this type of accident is because i ride a steelhorse and drive a school bus full time .I aint seen it all but i have had many times people coming up behind me and i had to go home and change my shorts .rearend accidents are the worst accidents on the road aside from headons most cause chain reactions INFRONT and behind the car that hits ya .the ironic part about a rearend accident is it is the most avoidable Quote
Super User Root beer Posted October 10, 2007 Super User Posted October 10, 2007 Muddy, you aint right bro. ;D Trip, sorry about your car, hope his insurance buys you a new one or fix it up real good. Quote
Super User Catt Posted October 10, 2007 Super User Posted October 10, 2007 A nice little pickup would be cool 8-) Quote
tipptruck1 Posted October 10, 2007 Author Posted October 10, 2007 Yea I will say muddy nots right but thats muddy. Iam starting to feel the pain. Right now its a head ach. It was so bad a few hours ago I couldn't even see stright. If iam in any pain tomorrow which iam sure I will be. I will head to a doctors tomorrow. If I do decide to sue will my insurance pay all the bills. Iam a little low on cash right now. To make it better it was a Direct tv van that hit me. So iam sure If I decide to sue I can get some money from them. Iam all ready looking at a mustang or a truck. I will let you guys know whats going on. Quote

Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted October 10, 2007 Super User Posted October 10, 2007 Tipp....Done any fishing lately? Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Tipp....Done any fishing lately? I was wondering the same thing! lol Man,...you remind me of the guy "Shleprock" on the Flintstones , the guy with the black cloud that follows him around,...."Oh me, Oh my...." Dirk got rear ended yesterday,..........I think the party is tomorrow night,lmao If you really didn't get hurt, it ain't such a bad thing dude. I was rearended at a light a few yrs back. Zero injury and I had to replace my trunk lid. I even found a black one at the scrap yard, loaded it with sound dampner and I was good to go. The insurance company all but begged me to accept the check for 5k to sign off on the whole thing. I explained ..."But I'm not injured..." and he explained that it is worth 5k for them to not have to worry about future claims. Well,...I ain't dishonest but moreover, I ain't stupid. Cashed and spent. Quote
Super User Redlinerobert Posted October 10, 2007 Super User Posted October 10, 2007 Tipp, Sorry about the truck, but would it be possible for you to post, atleast one time, something positive? Quote
Super User SPEEDBEAD. Posted October 10, 2007 Super User Posted October 10, 2007 I dont know if they have forums, but I am sure there are answers to all your questions here.... www.drphil.com I really am glad that you are not hurt, but I can only hope that it is not at all possible for you to not have anything positive in your life. Wrecked your truck Tools were messed with at school Woman at the bank wouldnt go out with you. Listen man, I look at it this way and I tell each and every one of my clients that gives me a sob story this exact same thing. IT COULD ALWAYS BE WORSE. AT LEAST YOU WOKE UP BREATHING THIS MORNING.
