Frieght Truck > Car
Foremost, I just wanna say that I wasn't in my car when it happened... thank God!

So here's the story... just as I was about to hit the sheets, around ~130ish I hear a sound that of a freight truck. Oddly enough, one wandered into my neighborhood. Then, all of a sudden I hear a loud crunch and a car alarm blaring. So, I rushed outside and much to my dismay this is what I saw...

Yes, WTF?!

And that's my Monday. I had just got the car back this past Wed. after it being in the shop for two weeks. Anyways, just waiting for the adjuster and tower.

Yeah, I don't see the big deal, just rebend the c pillar back to straight, and then put some plastic over the windows and you're good to go.


Glad you weren't in the car. I hope the trucker is insured.

Yeah, I'm hoping for the best. I got the trucker's info and all. For now, I'll just leave it be until the adjuster swings by. I wouldn't wanna move it just yet, 'cause of this...

Damn, he knocked it into the car in front of you? That really sucks. Something similar to that happened to me in HS. This lady rear-ended me doing 30mph and hit me into the car in front of me. She ended up paying for all of it.

Damm sorry to hear about that Karl. Hopefully you can get it fixed and have some extra goodies put in at the same time.

Yup, actually SHE did, 7 years of trucking experience and all. I already filed a claim with my insurance co. and I hope the trucking co. (which is based in N. Carolina) will pay for everything.

Called the police, SJPD just said to go through insurance and if I wanted to file a report, I were to go directly to the department.

Wow, that's odd. They're supposed to write one up for all accidents with damage totaling more than $500
