Damnit... :(

Well, i made a left from Ventura to Topanga today and promptly some young kid smashed his Impala SS into my rear end

The entire bumper has shifted a foot to the right and God knows what else is destroyed.. and that three days before a trip to Vegas with it

I grieve for you like your child has been hurt. I dredd the day that I am hit by some uninsured junk driving fool. I put my hand on the left fender while removing the Bra, and guess what, I dinged it. A small hardly visible demple, but I know it is there. The bottom line, THE FENDERS AND OTHER PARTS ARE AS SOFT AS HELL, AND IT DON'T TAKE MUCH USE CAUTION AT ALL TIME.

The bumpers act like they're made of paper during a collision.. which i assume is what they're supposed to do My rear bumper is thoroughly smashed..

The big problem now is that the kid who hit me has 'disappeared', my insurance tried to put a claim on his insurance and they can't find the guy.

Most likely he is on daddies insurance and as thus the name doesn't match.. also, the policy number i noted down is missing a digit, so that's not to be found either.

Now, be VERY VERY careful if you get hit by someone with AAA insurance, they CANNOT search for the vehicle/policy using the license plate!

Also, steer clear of Progressive (my insurance) as they don't do DICK for you. I spend TWO HOURS waiting to talk to my claims adjuster here in the West San Fernando Valley, and she turned out to be a bitch of the first degree.. she tried to call the kid once today, just once..

I am switching insurance the moment my car is fixed.
