    I had a lady run into to me today. I think this truck is bad luck this is like the 3-4 time I had someone hit me. I was turning left and both lanes turn left and she came into my lane. she said she did not see the sign and didn't see the painted lines on the ground. looks to be just paint

    Yeah that’s why I always turn left from the farthest left lane. I’ve had a lot of near misses in those types of situations. People suck at driving.

    That’s annoying. Sorry to hear that. It is odd how some cars are a magnet for trouble. I had a Honda that was hit twice in a parking lot (no note left either time), broken into once, and had its catalytic converter stolen.

    That bumper appears totaled to me. I think you should upgrade to a Mobtown bumper.

    I don’t like the metal bumpers so it will never get one. Just happy she had insurance and told us she forgot both lanes turn so it should not be a problem with insurance. We both have Allstate so it should be easy

    so I talked to the insurance company today and the lady is saying I hit her and she did nothing wrong. they said they are checking both of our stories to see who hit who. should I show them the dash camera video of her not staying in her lane and hitting me ?

    I see people doing this all the time. It seems that they have forgotten how to turn into a lane check for blind spots then change to the lane they want. I had this happen to me just last week. I had to hit the brakes to avoid collision. Someone's insurance premium is going to increase, but it wont be OP

    That actually just happened to me a couple weeks ago, luckily I had literally a day with my sliders on and he just rocked my truck... And his fender got some well deserved karma

    I would. I would also go back to that intersection if possible and riding shotgun take pictures of all of the signage and the lanes the best you can.

    Absolutely. That way they will get you fixed up and then they will drop her lying ***.

    Same as everybody else...
    I don't know if a red truck would help. My son has a red Tundy. Last summer he was stopped in a turn lane and a lady pulled out and hit him in the left front. Not a lot of damage just some bent sheet metal and headlight. Two weeks ago a turkey flew I .Front of him and took out his grill. I think the truck is jinxed.
