Two years ago, a deer hit my car not long after I got it (the deer also didn’t have insurance). Anyone else feel bad when their car gets hit? I feel like my Elantra’s been through enough.
She really yelled at you when she was the one who hit your parked car? That’s a new one. I mean, she’s the one at fault.
Did you take any pics?

I went through something similar, but at least the driver had insurance… no license though.

It’s just a hassle, honestly.
So… she just yelled, and you let it go?

No way. I called the police right then, and he took my side. Got an insurance claim started, but I doubt I’ll get any money back. Now I’m waiting for the transportation department to suspend her license and plates until she pays up. Insurance is looking to pursue her too.

You really shouldn’t have to be paying out of pocket at all for this.

Depends if you have uninsured motorist insurance. This kind of thing’s why I have it.

True, but even uninsured motorist coverage has a deductible, so you’re still out a bit. Once, my insurance didn’t bother going after the guy who hit me because they said it wouldn’t be worth it. Felt like they just gave up.
@ElantraEnthusiast2
Mine doesn’t have a deductible for uninsured, but I guess that depends on the company.

Yeah, she’s uninsured, but I do have coverage for it.

Still don’t get how some places don’t have no-fault insurance. Just makes things worse.

Wow, what a hassle… insurance should really help you out here.

Yeah, there’s the deductible, plus other stuff like rental or towing fees.

My deductible feels like it’s just adding insult to injury.

If they get her to pay later, you’ll get your deductible back. I had to wait after a similar incident, but eventually got reimbursed.
@malawi
Hopefully she learns her lesson from all this.
No insurance? Call the cops right away next time.
