Hope that everyone in Prime is doing well, it has been a long time since I have been on the boards or at the SCA events but I am/was still loving my car. Anyway, long story short, my immaculate 1995 T was rear ended this past Thursday on Jamboree and Dupont in Irvine. Drunk driver in a Mercedes decided that the red light didn't apply to her even though I was at a standstill red for quite a while. I saw her coming in the rear view mirror at full speed so I gunned the engine at the last second trying to get to the turn lane on my left, unfortunately I was too late and she clipped my passenger side corner of my car and pin balled into the Audi next to me. I am afraid that the damage to my beauty is not cosmetic but I survived so I can't complain. Also, lots of spectators and witnesses (including 5 police cars, ambulance and fire truck) and drunk was hauled off with her car. To get to the point, there is no question on culpability here, but I am not sure how to move forward. I have a police report number, but I didn't get the drunk's insurance info since she was being extracted from the car into a stretcher and pretty much out of it. I had my car flat bedded to my house until I can deal with the insurance issues. While I am very attached to the car, as we all are on Prime, the extent of the damage may mean I have to part with her, not sure. If not, I intend to check out MV Designz and/or Bell's for the work. Anyway, if anyone out there has been through this type of situation please let me know what pitfalls/issues I can expect to deal with. I understand that I may be lowballed up front on a settlement. I may sue the driver in any event....:frown:
