Hey everyone,
I haven't been around in these forums since I was on vacation for a month and busy at work. Anyways, back at the end June, I was rear ended *twice* in the same accident. The result was I was pushed into the van in front of me and sustained front damage, creating a 4 car pile up... The estimate on my car came out to around a ridiculous $11000 CDN! I'm sure the final bill will be higher, especially after a month and a half rental.
My car is still in the shop because for some reason our body shops are backed up like crazy (we have bad drivers in Edmonton).
As for insurace, I called my insurance the next day to let them know of the incident. The lady who totalled her van on my rear end didn't even want to give her information out to any of the drivers in the accident. It didn't matter because all the information was in the police report. The other parties were very civilized.
Anyways on to the pics. And then the advice part.............
(Subtitles are under each pic)
This van hit me second. I'm pretty sure she totalled her 96 Dodge Caravan...
That silver buick hit me first. Her rear bumper is damaged from the green van hitting her before hitting me.
Front end of buick, front passenger damage from side swiping me just before swirving off to the side.
I was pushed into the Freestar in front.
The total Carnage...
Tow truck peeled my car off the van =(
Car getting towed.
At the body shop, my rear end.
Driver Rear.
Passenger Rear.
Front. Bumper pushed in, grille cracked.
