[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: I have been rearended twice in the last three years. The rushed, selfish drivers in DC are just so aggravating. And being a parent is no excuse. My kid played a competitive sport at a national level and I drove them one hour each way three nights a week after a long day at work, for several years. I never rear-ended anybody. Yes, it's an accident, but having been rearended twice in three years by people like you who seem to think that being harried is an excuse, is just extremely frustrating. Do you know how much time that guy is going to have to take out of his life to get his car looked at? I had one guy run into me after I had just come to a stop at a stop sign and because my car was 8 years old and had a little ding in the bumper already, assumed I didn't have to get it fixed and seemed very taken aback that I was a little annoyed at having to stop, exchange information, etc. My car needed the entire bumper replaced, despite just what the driver saw as a couple scratches. It was a huge pain. Please stop acting like that guy did something wrong just because his car was old. You were harried and careless and he doesn't deserve that. [/quote]
Ok, I hope you never make a mistake...[/quote]

I kind of agree with the PP. OP is very dismissive and it is a huge inconvenience to have to get estimates and repairs on your vehicle. Causing that really means you owe an apology.

As for what to do, I scraped a car in a parking lot - left my information. Total damage was $1400. My premium increased by $3700 per year and that was my only accident in 20 years. I ended up finding a different carrier. But OPs problems might not be over. [/quote]
