Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Pics and Videos Hit and Run...

Have him arrest her [censored]!!! Thats what i did when a woman decided to throw her car in reverse sittin at a stoplight, back into me, and then try to run. . Then i introduced her to the contour's ability to run her stuff down while i was on the phone with the police. He arrested her for felony hit and run.

I hope your situation pans out better than mine, i had a hit and run, called cops, got police reports, but my insurance wouldn't waive the deductible, even with the police report they basically summed it up as "Pay your $500 deductable, or if you know who did it have their insurance cover it" after that i just wanted to shout "If i knew who did it it wouldn't be a hit and run, it'd be a collision dumbass!"

So I'm still driving around with a cracked rear svt bumper, and have a $500 deduct i can't afford

i will take an L2.

definitley have her arrested. F- that man. I've had a hit & run on my car twice. Both times, luckily it was covered by insurance. First time the woman left a note, and the second time my insuarnce covered it as a "no fault."

I have some good new for you though...find someone parting out a 'tour, there's plenty. Due to shoddy body work from the first accident ( i had almost identical damage to you ) I decided to just replace the door, which is what should have been done the first time. It cost me $75, and the guy who sold me the door gave me a bunch of other stuff for free too. It took about 45 minutes to install and swap over hardware..that includes my spirited drive around the parking lot of my job with the door off.

UPDATE..... REDUX!!

She didn't show up today so I called the police. Of course about 75 minutes later he shows up (close because I almost left for the bank).

He took my statment and said that he found out the [censored] actually had her insurance on hold - which could mean she either missed a payment or is being reviewed.... Or something. So there might be SOME hope.

What's new to me is the process for following up on the report. He gave me a business-sized card with a case number and website. In 1-2 days I have to go to the website and enter the case number where I'll be directed to the information on the report along with her HER insurance information - if it's there.

Otherwise I'll have to find out about my insurance carrying uninsured motorist coverage or if necessary, how the collision will be covered. Being that I have a report and the guilty party I hope it would bode favorably.

The officer sounded promising in that it will solved one way or another. He said it's mostly circumstantial for now but given the information he's been given, it SHOULD work out.

Not happy, but not pissed. At least I have the Aprilia.... With the broken mirror.

Too many long stories....

Man I would be livid.

I had some asshat demolish my rear end and then try and weasel out of paying for it. I was NOT going to claim the deductible so I filed a "mini-tort", in MI you can do this as well as other no fault states. It's a legal doc that lets you sue the other person for the damages. I did this through advice of my insurnce company and I never paid a freakin' cent!

You really need to at least notify your ins co of the situation even if you don't think you need them quite yet. They can't do anything to you, as far as raising your premium or loosing discounts w/o you filing a claim...although they still may be able to assist positively in the justice of this case.

Because people who get upset over swear words need to stop being wieners anyway
