What should I do about this?
 

So I come outside this morning and someone has backed into my Acura CL 2.3. Trunk is dented in pretty good, tailight is smashed and the bumper is pushed in (thinking the support is damaged) and bowing out the passenger side. No note on my car.

I look through the parking lot and see the women's brand new Jeep Cherokee has a scratch in the bumper and she has the perfect line to back up and crack into me (assigned spaces).

So I went to her this afternoon and asked if she knew about it. She told me she was liquored up last night and backed into my car and didnt know it, but her boyfriend saw/heard it and told her when she got home from the bar. She doesnt want to go through insurance (i dont blame her because a police report has to be filed for that). So agreed I would go get and estimate and she said she would cut me a check.

How open am I? What are the best things to do to cover my ass? I called the cops earlier before I had spoken to her and they said it was best to talk to her before filing a report. I'm not doing anything illegal, but I need to make sure this bitch pays to fix my car.

Any help is appreciated...thanks! :-\

Re:What should I so about this?
 

make her sign a document stating that she will cover all repair costs and she declares it is her fault. So that way when a fat repair bill comes, she doesn't bail.

Re:What should I so about this?
 

hook up a hidden video camera and get everything this bitch says on tape

or atleast a recorder or something y0

need proof

rape herside ways y0

use tabasco as lube and corn hole ---- her wildy!

Re:What should I so about this?
 

no matter what BRING THE COPS INTO THIS! or at least have her signed something agreeing to it. My friend had the same thing happen to him with a girl boyfriend and he said he would pay for it. Weeks later they said ---- off and he's not paying for ----. So have something signed or get some cop to witness it. I hate to see you get skrewed :-\

oh yeah fix your topic title too ;)

Re:What should I so about this?
 

I'd video tape the 2 of you having sex and use it for blackmail.

Re:What should I so about this?
 

i dunno know about hidden camera, they might dismiss it as an invasion of privacy, or actually I think the recordee has to be notified of being video taped. Reasons why stores have signs that say you are being watched. Unless the meeting is in your own home then record away, even then I think you need a sign. For example when realters have cameras set up to watch during open houses, they have to have a sign.

I woulda had a tape recorder the day of the confrontation, you would have had sooo much not to worry about.

Also go take pics of her damage before she cleans it up and pics of your damage and the parking spaces. Uhhhh like go do that NOW! Don't wait long you need pics as evidence or you will be fucked.

So here steps to do:

1- Go take pics of both cars, and parking spaces, heck a video would be better. Do both.

2- Get it down in writing that she will take care of EVERYTHING. And make her sign it.

3- See if you could tape record any conversations, again so you don't ---- yourself.

4- oh yeah, have at least one witness

You need some proof, evidence, in case she bails.

my best freind re ended me a few months ago, we didnt go through insurance, he just payed the bill when my car was fixed

Re:What should I so about this?
 

Just do the whole contract thing. Write it up yourself and have both people sign it, a witness wouldn't hurt either. This way you are safe. Make sure she agrees to fault and that she will cover all repair costs 100%.

The thing about getting a police report filed is, at least in PA, if no one is hurt and both cars are drivable, it is considered an "incident" rather than an "accident" or something to that regard. This means that the police dont release a report and its a bitch to get everything faxed over to insurance. When this happened to me it took a good 2-3 weeks until the officer dug up the report and had it faxed to the insurance company. Had I known I would have faked a neck injury or something.

Re:What should I so about this?
 

I would give har like two days to pay in full and if she doesn't get the cops involved. if she procrastonates about paying now, she will six months from now and why the ---- should you pay cause some dumb slut got plastered and hit your car.

Re:What should I so about this?
 

something like this happened to my brothers 3000gto. it was a kid who didnt have insurance, my brother popped out the dent and buffed out the other cars paint out of his. kid coughed up 2 grand after my brother went to the best and highest priced repair shop for an estimate :)

most people would be scared to not pay you especially when you could involve the police and she would be charged with a DUI also and her insurance wouldnt cover ---- for her because.

"if you are committing a crime while driving and have an accident your insurance doesnt cover ---- on your own side."

Re:What should I so about this?
 

I took pics with my phone camera.

Her daughter was there when she told me she was drunk and her boyfriend is the that told her she did it. One of my other neighbors was outside when i first saw the damaged and i showed her so she can be a witness.

I am getting an estimate tonight, so if she doesnt cough up the dough, the police will be called tonight.

I dont think she needs any MORE trouble from the police. Yep, they have been to her apartment before ::)

Thanks for the help.

Re:What should I so about this?
 

okay cool. Even though you have camera phone pics, I would try to get some clear big pics.

Oh and don't count of her bf and daughter as witnesses, people lie for people they know.

Good luck man, hope you get some good cash for it :)

Re:What should I so about this?
 

call the cops dude. the police report is like gold if you have to take her insurance company to court

Re:What should I so about this?
 

do everything everyone else says, but don't take a check, she could stop payment on that in no time.

Re:What should I so about this?
 

^^^I think this is going to be your best bet. Do you think this dumb bitch has....say....$2000 in her account to cover this? How is she going to pay? She's not. :-\ ---- her for being a dumbass and driving drunk and smashing into your car and not even knowing it. That could have been your child she ran over and didn't even know it. ---- her and what she wants. Maybe she won't be such a dumb ---- if she gets bent over with higher insurance rates and a nice little at fault accident on her record.

This reminds me, I need to go down to the cop shop and see about getting some insurance money from the dinosaur that hit me the other weekend. ::)

Chip her ecu with a really lean, aggressive timing map. ;)

Re:What should I so about this?
 

your going to have to include the police, who knows she could back out then its your word vs hers, you dont want that.. since you didnt directly see her do it

Re:What should I so about this?
 

exactly.
i`ve seen enough when i use to work in car rental.
CALL THE COP AND FILE A REPORT

Re:What should I so about this?
 

I would agree with the everyone else, call the cops, get a police report and get the insurance companie(s) involved. There are a lot of times when the initial estimate does not actually cover all of the damages. What happens if she cuts you a check/cash for $1800 and the repairs turn out to be $2300, do you really think she is going to give you the balance ::) Ya know, you guys can agree not to tell the cops she was drunk if you want....or if she or her daughter is hot, you can use that as leverage for a good evening of doggie style :P

Re:What should I so about this?
 

BTW xenocron u miss-spelled the title. :P

Re:What should I so about this?
 

---- that Chris. Tell her to go through her insurance. Then you are gaurenteed to get payed. I had the same thing happen almost to a T. I got my money in a week.

Re:What should I do about this?
 

Yep...you guys are all SOOOOO right. My GF talked some sense in me too...I'm too ------- nice I guess.

I actually feel bad, but I did. Filed the report..the cop was cool and said he would pay her a visit tonight. He said if she gave him ---- he was going to slap her with leaving the scene of an accident, so ---- her.

I need to make sure I dont get fucked.

BTW, the estimate was for $2800!!! Holy ----! :o

Re:What should I do about this?
 

Good choice. $2800 is alot of money and I doubt she would have just written a check to you for $2800. :-\
