dude glad you're ok. And I know exactly how you feel, my AC was totalled last january, it was similar damage except on the passenger side but i guess there was more frame damage on mine since your able to get yours repaired. I hope everything goes smoothly, i thought my whole ordeal was over until i got a call from the girl who me's insurance company the other day, almost a year later but anyways glad you're ok and good luck with the repairs

DAMN dude... Good to hear that you're OK and in good health. the car can be repaired and replaced, but your life can't. I feel sorry for those poor stickers though (In a sarcastic voice).

Some states are no fault states so it doesn't matter if the accident was your fault or not; rates go up if a claim is put in

That is the dumbest thing that I have ever heard.

Also, +1 to pretty much everything that has already been said. Sucks about the car, but glad that you are ok man.

Ah, my state is not one of the 13 no-fault states. It's a means to allow insurance companies to lower their premiums as they would not spend as much in court fighting over fault. I hope the "lower" rates are worth it.

in new york ur insurance will not go up because your incurance isn't doing anything. The enitre accident will be taking care of by her insurance company. My dad just did $10,600 damage to his charger when someone in a maxima hydroplaned in front of him and hit a guard rail. The maxima's insurance company took care of everything and not even a mention on my dad's insurance. If it does go up for some reason you should fight it because they are paying no money for you accident and in new york no fault claims don't raise your insurance.

I think LBC means that it's now $450 more than what she used to pay. So it's not just $450 it's an additional $450.

As for the issue of insurance claims If the other person is at fault then you submit any claims to their insurance - not ur own - so why would your rates go up. Even if you submit to your insurance it should not go up if you are not at fault - you just have to pay your deductible - ur insurance company handles you (dr. visits, time off from work), your car, sets up a rental etc and attempts to recover those costs from the at fault's policy.

This has been my experience in Maryland - I've from NY but have never had an accident there so

Heel - you stated the woman is paying for it correct? So why would YOU submit a claim through ur policy.

As for the seats being ripped - that's what they're supposed to do. Be glad that you are safe - ur car can be fixed - as much as we love them - they aer just a material thing.

Can you imagine how much worse the damage would have been if you didn't have those decals there?? Just Kidding

If you are the type - you should try to stay on top of the repairs. By that I mean picking a shop that consistently does good work - dont just go by the name or a dealer body shop association. Try to stop in periodically and know from the start the work that needs to be done. Better to catch mistakes along the way.

if you have aaa insurance, they base the rates on the amount of accidents in your area, i think its your zip code. but anytime ANYONE has an accident in your area, your rates go up because the percent of accidents in your area is now higher. so even if you are not involved and there is an accident in your neck of the woods, expect a rate hike. on the plus side, if you live in pleasant ville and there are no accidents ever there, expect your rates to fall, fall, fall haha
