Its ok. Like my dad said it was minor and it took like 5 hours to sort through just think what a major accident would be like. I did learn a lesson through this though. Which is a plus.

So they got there car looked at and they want 2100 to fix the little dent even though it has been proven its not my fault! These people are trying to drain my bank ! Ugh summer has not been good so far

And i found out that they were not telling the truth when they said that she filed a police report! I have know idea how they pulled that one over on me and my dad!

Amazing what it cost to fix a little dent huh? Tell them you were stopped because you saw her coming. If you tell them you were still moving you may be determined at fault. It doesn't really matter that she was speeding. You can't prove that anyway. What matters is that you were backing out and she was in the right of way lane. If you were stopped you can't help it she ran in to you.

I thought insurance was involved now. If they are contacting you to say this, tell them to have their insurance call your insurance. They very well could be trying to squeeze money out of you. And even if you owe $2100, you REALLY only owe your deductible. That's why you have insurance.

I didnt see her coming. She went around my truck she is claming she though i was pulling into the spot even though the back up lights and the back up beep was going. But i did stop to look to make sure it was safe to keep going. Which is when she clipped me.

Actually if the accdt is your fault, you owe nothing. The insurance will pay 100%.of the cost for the other car. Deductibles only apply when you are filing a claim for your car. It will raise your rates though.
