Think this will buff out? - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

They should total your car, buy you a new one, and revoke that old hag's license (in an ideal world).

I'd be really surprised if they totaled it... Highly doubt it. I think the total loss value in VA is 75%, so unless damages are over ~$18k, there's little chance of a total loss.

I know, just thinking wishfully for you. If it were just crumpled body panels--whatever--but from the looks of it, she continued plowing forward like a clueless idiot, possibly putting stress on the rear wheel and drivetrain.

Did you talk to her? Was she remorseful at all or indignant, because in the picture she just looks insane.

Eski · 02-05-2015, 04:58 PM

im still baffled that she was still sitting in the car with the car running while the cop is walking up to the cars..

aznatama · 02-05-2015, 04:59 PM

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too. Had to pry metal away from rear wheel to move car. No idea about alignment and rear suspension. I'll see what the body shop finds.

aznatama · 02-05-2015, 05:02 PM

Yeah, cop has to ask her several times if she was okay. She seemed quite out of it. Maybe shock? No idea. Baffled me too. There were plastic pcs of the cars on my hood and windshield too. O.o

Eski · 02-05-2015, 05:04 PM

what did she end up saying was the reason she hit you?

aznatama · 02-05-2015, 05:09 PM

No idea, didn't talk to her... Got plenty of pictures showing she was clearly in my lane and that we were well past intersection. Location of hit already in my favor too, imo. She eventually exited her car to speak with the officer after we pulled over to the side, but appeared rather dazzled still. No idea what was up with her and didn't want to approach.

Eski · 02-05-2015, 05:10 PM

haha i dont blame you im just glad nobody was hurt. cars can be fixed, people not so much

BlueSky · 02-05-2015, 05:29 PM

Good luck man,
I don't know how you can be so calm...I would be losing my mind if that happened to me

I know it's not right to hit women...but, there is always exceptions

aznatama · 02-05-2015, 05:32 PM

Things are usually easily fixed or compensated for. I'd rather use my time and energy towards getting compensation and other productive means, than tripping out over other people's negligence. =)

Spare cell phone in the glove compartment?

Drugs/prostitute phone?

LOL, nope. Just a prepaid phone I had from a 1 month gap due to a delay in my new phone being shipped. Besides, you don't keep burner phones around.

Burrcold · 02-07-2015, 09:23 PM

I feel your pain. Mine will be in the shop until mid March.
