civic vs Mack truck I got hit today 5 mins after i orderd my shocks... When i was pulling out, there was a red light so cars were stoped. There was a 1.5 car gap infront of the truck, I looked up at him and he waved. I was assuming that he wanted me to pull out. So i pulled out as far as i could, now liek the front 1/4 of my car is in the road. The light turns green so the cars infront of me go, and as im pulling the rest of the way into the lane the truck hits me. He moved from a dead stop about 4 feet straight into my fender/door. The guy "never saw me" even tho he waved me out. Then the cop came.. and said it wasnt anyones faut so my insurence pays for mine, and his company pays for the damage to the truck(which isnt anything).
fender/door
fender/door2
Holes in the door
Hard to tell from the pic but the top of the hood is bent down because the fender pushed over it

Rep Power: 0 I dont even know if im going to claim it or not... i have a $1000 deductible, and im prety sure i can do it for less than that. The only thing i dont know about is the door. anyone know a salvage place that might have one. I dont think a body shop would be able to fix it because it has a big bow in it now, and the lugnuts from the truck made some prety good holes.
haha good point

Rep Power: 0 It's not everyday you can get hit by a mac truck and live to tell about it.
That is the worst intersection know to man tho. I don't know what they were thinking when they made it. When you are green so are the cars to the left of you. So you have to wait untill thats clear and by the time that happens its red agian. I would like the meet the retard that set that up.

Rep Power: 0 Well you can go to your city transportation department and have them check it over. Get signatures to have your words heard, so they would do something about that stupid "green-green" setup..

wow a $1000 deductible that really sucks, mines on $100 which is really nice, hopefully you can fix it for cheaper on your own.
