So a few days ago I rear ended a car and caused 7k worth of damage to my love. Insurance is fixing the car but I will have to get my own insurance. I've gotten quotes at around $800 per month! As a student, I can't afford to pay over $1100 per month to drive this awesome car. Since this car is leased, what options do I have? I can't imagine working all summer to buy a POS Civic and still pay $300 per month for liability. I'd appreciate any kind of advice.

@Joetheegyptian Do you have comprehensive insurance? That would cover the damage.

Wasn't driving fast yet you've had 15 tickets and 4 wrecks in 5 years?

My advice, go back and demand the guy pay for it. With any luck he'll shoot you dead so you aren't such a goddamn hazard to everyone else on the road.

I think I should swing by tomorrow and give him a copy of the estimate and hope he does the right thing
1) Should have stopped and took care of it there, do that next time
2) Listen to the cops
3) He vandalized you car, what do you think the chances of him having a change of heart is and paying you?
4) Lesson learned

bring some friends and go to his house to give him the papers. Me and all my friends carry knives on us at all times, just in case something happens.

I feel like the average age of this forum is somewhere close to 19.

And there are 2 definitively separate groups. The younger crowd, and the older crowd. The older crowd always contributes, the younger always posts these threads.

It's a bit annoying. Obviously OP was doing something stupid in a neighborhood. Now, you take OP, 20 years old, 15 tickets, and 4 wrecks. Now picture OP.

Now picture OP driving an FR-S that is in dire need of some cats.

Wouldn't you do the same?

I'm sure OP was cocky with the guy. The story just doesn't add up otherwise.

"-I've had over 15 tickets and 4 wrecks (my fault) in the past 5 years. 3 of those tickets and 2 of the wrecks were in the past 3 years."

Yet you couldnt possibly have been driving like a jackass and pissing someone off while driving around their neighborhood?

I am 46, and drive race cars (porsches, surpas, etc.) and havent even had 2 tickets in the last 15 years.

However I HAVE had a face to face conversation with an officer at the PO about me nearly kicking some kids ass for driving 55 in my grandkids crosswalk....
The kid was in the room with me and the officer and he was about to throwup
But I chose to not press any charges....

Maybe you should just get over it.

I'm not usually one to judge somebody like this but maybe you are just a bad driver? I still remember that other thread you made. You don't think you were going fast... you have over 15 tickets in just 5 years.. maybe you should give us your definition of not speeding.

your quote from previous thread:

"

Just got home from the bar and now I'm reading this thread while waiting for Top Gear US to come on. I remember your other thread too. You're either a troll of a colossal fuck-up. I'll let you choose which.

Oh good I'm glad you posted. I wasn't sure if my aim was good or not, and thought I had missed.

You drive a Firestorm FRS. Reminds me of that "Red Celica" Commercial; you look fast even when you're parked.
