Car got hit

My car got hit today at 4:30. I was pulling out of a parking lot when this Infinity with his blinker on and slowing down about to turn is coming towards me. He basically slowed down...changes his mind, released his brake and runs into me. My left clear is busted and my bumper is scratched to hell. Bumper is displaced a little. His was dented in and his right bumper light was busted.

Its gonna really be hard to win this one since he did have the right of way. I guess I'm just sad and gloom right now more than anything. Court date is on Feb 27th. Guess I'll call my lawyer now . I just don't like seeing my baby like this. Rents are pissed cause I just got my muffler put on and they feel it caused my carelessness?

Well...now that its been in an accident, I guess I can get it fixed then trade it in in about a year or so and just get another car, cause thats what my rents usually do when our cars get in a wreck. This just makes me mad cause I don't have time for this shit. I need to study for the MCATs and already have to deal with this speeding ticket. Man...this just ruined my week.

Guess all mods are on a halt now.

I'm really sorry to hear about the accident!

Gotta watch those mufflers; they are the 2nd cause of most accidents behind CAIs.

I hope you're ok????

Get the insurance $$$ ASAP, and get your CL lookin' good again!

Yea...I'm fine. Collision was less than 5 mph, no one was hurt. I'm just kinda gloom. I feel bad cause my insurance is gonna rise up, which means my parents will have to pay more. I really feel bad about that cause I don't want them to pay more than they have to already for me, especially for shit like this where its my own fault. Best I can hope for is the court will withhold the points so my insurance won't increase too much.

damn... gotta hate the light accidents.. Its like they are small enough where you can still drive around with them and have to see it everday... where asa big acident puts your car out of commission for a bit , but looks like new the next time you see it!!


anyway... I'm sure it will work out...

but why court? your insurance should fight it .. not you!

Damn bro, I guess I'll have to wait before seeing your ride. You running this thing through Dekalb country court, or Fulton? Hope its Dekalb, figure it should be since Emory is in Dekalb and since Fulton sucks the big fatty. Sucks when everyone gets mcat-obsessed and you're worrying about your car, but just handle your biz and bust out your 30+ score and then fix your ride and everything is bueno. Damn, time to leave Miami and come back to the reality of Atlanta....

Sorry to hear about your car man. Knock the MCAT out first, then worry about the car.

Hell, I hope to see some of you ATL guys next week, I'll be driving down again to visit my moms in Roswell around Wednesday or Thursday for the weekend. It's a football tournament in ATL, and I'll be there to play, but have fun when the gameface isn't on.


Good luck on your test, and with the car.

Georgia law says you have to appear in court
Not gonna fight it though. I asked my lawyer, he says there's really no way I'll win. This just blows.

Got so gloom I set up a date with a girl to get ass tomorrow night. Mabey I'll feel better after that.

Atta boy, you get some ass. Seems like there are a lot of us on here prepping for the MCAT in April. I'm taking the Princeton Review, damn thing better be worth the 1300 bones I just forked out for it. Had my first class tonight...in the span of 4 hours, they gave me 7 books and I took 17 pages of notes with one 5 minute break....yeah, it was just GREAT!
