car woes vol. 32

assalaamu alaikum

after dhuhr, i was coerced into going to grab a frosty from wendy's and drop my friend off at bally's on the way back and make it in time for class. so after we get the frosty and what not, i pull into the parking lot for bally's and some guy with a huge ram 1500 is reversing out of his parking spot and reverses right into the side of my car. the rear right door panel pops off and is slightly dented. i got all the insurance info and the popo came and all that jazz. after it was all done, when he pulled off and left, some black bag fell from his cab and i picked it up. it had important documents (...) so i plan on returning it to him. after i got home and told my parents what happened, they were like too bad you only have liability, so insurance isn't gonna give you any money. oh hell no. even though it was HIS fault? how am i supposed to fix this thing up then? meh. so my plans of someday pimping out the bonneville and making it more gangsta than it is by default have been replaced by getting this door panel fixed somehow.

maybe i should sell him his bag back for the cost of repairs. yeah, that'll work. hustle baby.

If the guy reversed into your car then its his fault. He should be paying for all the damage that is done to your car. No matter what the situation is, the person who is reversing its always their fault. It doesnt matter if you have liability or not cuz its coming outta the other guys pocket.

lol i have liability cuz full coverage is too expensive. this car just happens to be 10+ years old (maybe ill put up a picture) but my old sentra (Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi raji'oon) was a 98' and it was only on liability too.
