A vehicle attempting to change lanes or pull out into your lane must yield. You have the right of way but still must take reasonable measures to avoid a collision. Rules of the road 101.What does the police report state?

I'm so sorry. My husband totaled our car by reversing into a post in a parking garage a few years ago. Must have hit it at exactly the wrong spot . . .

The fact that it was our fault didn't come into play when it came to paying us for the car. After receiving the insurance company's payout offer, we responded with comps - and they went up a bit.

Also, IIRC, if we replaced the car within a certain number of days, insurance also covered some of the fees.

Two completely different stories. Turns out in an at fault state the other driver has to be 100 percent fault in order to have to pay out in other vehicle. So best case we pay out own vehicles.

Lucky I had collision coverage. She is claiming we caused accident. Obvious did not see at all and she shifted Lanes

Good to hear this. I hate how some people thing that every time there is a rear end collision it's the fault of the driver who did the rear ending.

Sorry, I meant to say "Good to hear this. I hate how some people THINK that every time there is a rear end collision it's the fault of the driver who did the rear ending.

OP key was the driver clipped the front headlight with the rear bumper on way over cutting in front then slammed on brakes.

So technically she hit my car first.

She had balls to claim on my insurance company. Buy looking at my front their was a sideways gash in grill and sideways gas her bumper mixed in with my totaled car.

I have been looking for something in the price range. Can you wait at all? The Hyundai Kona is one that I like and I think Fitzgerald has some in stock and does not do a dealer premium.

OP I bought a Tucson at MSRP from Fitzgerald. No mark-up. They call then in transit and had lots of models. One in Gaithersburg MD. They gave me like 8 Tucson’s and four Sante Fes to pick from. Just have to wait two weeks

Also in Chantilly VA the Chevy dealer does zero mark ups. Looked at new trailblazer and equinox. Trailblazer a bit small for me but great mpg.

I was down to Equinox vs Tucson and took the Tucson as more choices
