Well I was at college today and i went to pick my gf up from the library and a garbage truck backed up into my car. At first he was going to hit my door so i started to move forward but i wasn't fast enough and he clipped my rear bumper... Its pretty toast. Looks like the bumper, rear quarter panel and left tailight will need to be replaced. I've had a series of bad luck. Ugh.
Police officer was also being quite a butthole. He said I shouldn't have been there at all anyway since it was a No parking zone. I dont buy that, I was standing there, not parking. Besides, I was standing for no more than 5 seconds before the truck began to reverse and hit me. My poor baby will be out for the next 3-5 weeks. Just 1 week before my new exhaust and 3 weeks before my new wheels

 

actually that is your fault. You shouldnt be standin there even for 5 seconds.

 

sux that happened.. but you prolly won't win the insurance case cuz it was a red zone.. you have aftermarket bumper? what color is your z?

 

Your parents gonna be pissed they gotta pay for that

 

dude that suks....it amazes how people who back into sh^t get through life everyday.....

 

parents? how about me

 

Oh god, another "Young Drivers vs. The World" argument ganna start again... I hate it when this happens... I'm Pro-Young-Drivers... woot!

 

Wow. My best friend's G just got hit by a garbage truck too! Last week! Garbage truck conspiracy against the VQ..? :X

 

plumpzz is a good guy. Young, but a good guy. He's been around awhile too. Not the type to start the "I'm 14 and my dad bought me a Z" guy.

 

man this is not as bad as my "remote start accident" that happened at the dealership lol, and i still haven't gotten her back =[

 

doode that sux ***, did u even try to honk?

 

I remember that thread. Stoke of bad luck I guess.

 

don't let these guys get you down. a tractor trailer truck hit my car when it was brand new. they only hit the driverside mirror but it tore off and caused damage to the body too. i was in my car at a red do not stop zone. a bunch of taxi drivers came over and said it was my fault cause i was at a do not stop red zone while they were parked at a do not park red zone adjacent to me. the trucker tried to pay me off with $60 bucks for glue.

i filed a claim and his insurance paid me off with out admitting guilt. fight it.

 

Look at all these e-lawyers. FYI, if your in the car, while its turned on, whether ur stopped or not, ur driving, not parked.
Thank you shinkuu and vo7848. I've been here for about a year and i'm not all too happy people first go ahead and blame my age for what happens to me. Does it make a difference who pays for the car? (Even though I make insurance and car payments, being that I have a good college job thats oriented in my major)
Anyway, i called insurance already and filed a claim. I'm just annoyed the cop whose supposed to be the 'blind' one didn't bother to take my view on what happened, rather took what the truck driver said, and asked me if im healthy and walked away-- coming back 10 minutes later to tell me its both of our faults. I wish he would've gone about it more profesionally and taken both of our opinions. He wouldn't even listen to me when I told him to just note that I was in the car when he hit. Very unprofesional by these stupid campus police.



edit: i honked my azz off. He didnt hear me, his engine was on (duh) and his reverse siren was too loud. I tried to move forward but I couldnt move fast enough ahead, since it was rainy, and he hit my rear quarter panel and the bumper area rather than my door.
Ps, my spelling sucks, i know =\.

 

so you have a police report? most of the time, cop don't even bother to do a report if the accident happen in the parking lot.

 

Ill be picking the report up in 3 business days, so Tuesday. I called a cop in specifically asking for a report.

 

Your car was where it did not belong.

The truck driver did not see your car.

The campus police officer was doing his job. He could have given you a ticket.

The damage sucks.

Live and learn.

 

ever seen those cellphone commercials?

... thanks you, CAPTAIN OBVIOUS!

 

man stfu, who are u to tell him what to do, hes just posting here venting out and you shouldnt reply with stuff like this, we all know this, you dont have to act like some "kool mature guy". if youre going to post something like this its better to not post.
on another note--man that sucks, i feel for you =/

 

Once again, look at all these e-lawyers. You guys should get together, open a e-firm and suck my e-****.

sorry about my language but these tough guys probably would be the first to start to whine about how this and this happened to them ect. I dont whine much but its my baby (which i am paying for, daddy didn't buy haha)
