Sad state of affairs > Rexroad.com

A few days ago I had someone rear end my car. The woman behind me got hit by the car behind her. She then got pushed into me.

I pulled over with the two women and exchanged information. I barely got tapped and could not identify anything on my car that was wrong. I gave my information and went on about my day.

Later that day the insurance company for the driver at fault called. They wanted to know about my claim. I said that I did not have one. She asked again. I told her again that I did not have one. She did not believe me.

It is a sad state of affairs when everyone wants to take advantage of a situation when they did not suffer any damages. She hit me. Nothing was wrong. I don't deserve anything. I have no damages. I blame this on trial lawyers.

I agree, back in high school, I got rear ended, I did end up with a small whip lash. The Chiropractor was all over me to ask for 3 times the amount of my medical bills. Then the other guys insurance company came to my house and asked me how much to settle. i told him pay my Doctor bill and I just want to get back to my job. He insisted and would not leave until I gave him a figure. I said 200.00. I think he had to swallow a nitro tablet.

I was involved in an accident - car vs. debris on the roadway - a few years ago that totaled my car. All I wanted was enough to replace my car - fast. I had to be able to get to work. My insurance company couldn't believe that I wasn't making a medical claim, but I had been to the doctor to be checked out and there was no medical care needed. "Are you sure you're OK?," they kept asking me. They eventually decided that I wasn't kidding and covered the car. They didn't raise my rates afterwards. I was satisfied.

However, I will expect them to pay up if there is a reason to in the future.
