I cannot catch a break. 2 weeks ago I bought a 2006 Toyota 4x4 for a work truck. With 70 miles on it my Coordinator rear ended a truck, its been in the shop since. The accident was technically his fault although the truck driver took off and stopped short at a red light he thought was green. My guy took off and the ABS did not let him stop again in time.
I was heading to work in my Dodge 1 week ago and had to crawl my way past backed up traffic blocking the intersection only to clip the rear 1/4 of a lady that ran the red light. My bumper is messed up but I have decided to live with it and not tie another car up in the shop.
I am in North Carolina for the weekend closing on a new house. My in-laws are watching the kids. I told them to just use our Audi since the car seat for the 2 year old is in it.
He gets rear ended in the rain, bumper is toast and trunk is all buckled up. - Pics tomarrow.
Now my question.
How do I handle this with the other guys insurance. In Florida the one at fault pays all the damage in a rear end collision. I am more concerned with fees incurred at the end of the lease due to the car now being blemished and not worth as much.
I am taking the car to the dealership where the lease originated but I need to be sure once its fixed its over, or do I have to sweat being screwed over when I hand the car in at the end of the lease?
BTW- The Audi only has 2200 miles on it.
