My first accident.

So yesterday 30 Nov 15. Got rear ended by a mini van because a Ford Transit failed to realize we had stopped. But since it was on the off ramp of the high way and I was forced to stop because of the vehicle in front of me wanted to go right across the 2 other lanes into the gas station it still wasn't my fault. Rear bumper damage and possibly frame across hitch damage. My dash cover for the stereo broke on impact, and a little bit of head and back pain. The mini van had no insurance but the Ford did which was also a company vehicle. My insurance said my deductible was waived but I'm going through the company's insurance so let's hope for the best. Will update soon, getting my own estimate. The van was well the sandwich that was smashed by crappy sandwich makers at subway. Very crappy but short video from the front of the cab.

*UPDATE* 12/02/15 1913

So far, all the insurance companies have been doing their part. Hopefully getting an estimate tomorrow from Fords insurance. Still waiting for the repair shop to call me back to set up an appt. for my insurance. Will update soon.

 

Hey I've seen that maneuver before, looks like a text book example of a Puerto Rican right turn.

Lot of accidents lately on TW, hope all is well.

 

Yours doesn't look bad glad your ok, good thing your rear end can take a pounding

 

So the mini van had no insurance but the guy drives for lyft? remind me to never order a lyft ride again

 

The mini van driver had no insurance and was a POV, but the Ford was a company vehicle that did.

 

I'm glad to, and yes she can take take a pounding

 

Fucking Fords.....

 

I see what you did there lol

 

a what? Haha. My grandfather in Florida had a group of hispanics driving a beater cut him off, then yank the e-brake on him. He plowed right into them. He told the cop what happened, and they were screwed.

 

Grr. Sucks dude. I almost had the same situation last week when a car decided to turn across three lanes of traffic to enter Krystals.

 

POV?
I was just acknowledging the fact that he was an uninsured LYFT driver, bet UBER has em too
Glad you look like you got the better end of the stick!

 

w.t.h.a.y.t.a?

 

Feel your pain Ford van ran into my truck a month ago did not look that back either. But looks can be deceiving been 30 day and repairs still adding up. It really suck people stupidity these days good luck with the repairs.

 

Isn't the pink mustache a sign that the van drives for Lyft?

 

Imo keep your mouth shut, go to the hospital, contact your doctor and a lawyer. Good luck.

 

dang she held up well

 

Lucky you had the dash cam or it would've looked like you just decided to come to a complete stop for no reason!

 

Updated

 

Send that video to the cops so they can ticket the tool that caused the accident by making an illegal right hand turn. Second, next time move into the median or a parking lot because there are plenty of high speed morons still coming up behind the accident.

 

Glad you were able to walk away. This is why i got one of these
