Messed up day, 1LE got hit
Got into a hit and run today, dude hit me spun me around and he took off. I slammed the curb hard and wheel is about 45 degrees off but I saw where he tried to pull off and hide and found him. Got out and he was speaking Spanish, I was pretty pussed and demanded insurance and he said no... Said I'm calling the police and he took off on foot! Rear wheel is bent, leaning over and all stability track and lights are on. Tried to limp it home 2 miles away but the rear was all over the place going 10, dont know how I drove it after he hit me. Just sucks I park a mile away, 3 years old no dents or scratches and now this.

i didnt post any photos but i got hit by a semi truck a few weeks ago almost in the same place as you
quarter panel bumper and diffuser had to be replaced with paint and parts and labor came out to about $7k but only took about 2 weeks for repairs diode dynamics was nice enough to send me a replacement sidermarker at no cost!

Damn! Something is messed up with the diff I think, service stabilitytrackit up as well as service suspension. Damn an 18 wheeler! Mine was a mid 90 lifted truck, paper tags that were for a 1973 chevy, beer cans falling out of it. Glad your ok, mine wasn't at a high speed but still sucks. I was thinking 10k or so.

Don't think they caught him yet, he literally left his shit and took off on foot when I found him. I have uninsured motorists insurance, in Texas you need it. Aholes come up here and start driving with no license or insurance and I have to pay 250 deductible to fix my car

Sounds like Larry the Cable Health Inspector truck lol. For the Spanish speaking driver who fled not much you can do. Probably doesn't have coverage and I gotta wonder if the car was stolen as well then. Your insurance will have to eat the cost of repairs. If by some miracle he does have insurance demand a diminished value check as well. My 2012 5.0 I got into two accidents on it and didn't get no checks for it. They were not bad ones though but they still dinged a little off my trade in for it. |

Well......I would have but didn't want to go to jail. I had my fist drawn back and was close but he was old and I had a moment of weakness, if I started it would have been an ambulance and a wrecker. They impounded the truck and Arlington was looking for him, they were camped out hidden waiting. Ask how I know lol

Floriduh is terrible is uninsured drivers, illegal aliens driving, stolen cars, etc. The old 90 year old who hit me had progressive and the claims adjusted was a pr*ck when I finally was able to get a hold of him. basically a pia process to ask for the check. For a check that would have probably been just a couple hundred bucks it would have cost more in lawyer fees to get them to get a check for me. If it was something like 3 grand in damages hell yes I would go for a check then. |
