It doesn't matter if you were speeding or not. He didn't see you, he hit you. His fault. If you were speeding you could just say you were trying to speed up to get out of the way. Either way, it's still his fault. The dude is an idiot. You don't cause an accident like that slowly backing out of a driveway. Unless you ran a stop sign or a redlight, it's his fault 100%.
So I was leaving my development and some guy decides that he just wants to back out of his driveway without looking. This actually happened before when I had my old car but I was lucky enough that he stopped that time. Anyway, theres a bend than theres a straight piece of rode with 5 or 6 houses than theres another tiny bend (his house is one of the last houses), when the cop got here he told him that I was "speeding" than he went on to say he was "slowly" backing out and DID NOT see anything. So how the **** did you "see" that I was speeding?!? Its people like this that just **** me off so much, the guy was actually lucky the cop was there bc my dad and I were ready to break this guys face in. We know the guy who runs a body shop so hopefully tmrw I will have some good news that they can fix everything, hopefully just cosmetic damage. New fender, front bumber, maybe a door, a new rim, and than interior parts bc of the 2 airbags. Ill keep you guys updated.
P.S. - The car wouldnt start but my Uncle said that might just be a saftey thing bc the airbags went off... Anyone have any insight on this?
Damn I hate when they lie. He's automatically wrong for backing into you. Hope he got a nice fat ticket.
There was something in the news near me and some lady was drunk and was backing up, hit someone and got unsafe backing. Doesn't matter if it's out of the driveway or a parking spot.
make him pay for the lie and go to the hospital.. and sue his *** for medical injuries and pain and suffering, as well as the fact your carfax will now be hurt causing lower value for resale and get that money too!

Maybe not the pain and suffering, but definitely after diminished value. Make his lie hurt his pocket book.
Sorry to say but the car looks toast. Airbags blown, frame possibly bent where the crash bar mounts, obviously door, bumper, side skirt, fender, wheel... That's going to be one hefty repair and considering how cheap DE Z's go for nowadays, insurance will probably total it.
The airbags alone will be a big factor and if there is any frame damage it's done. The track wheels alone are worth money lol I would buy it back and part it out
