Car accident
Ok so I of in my first car accident today. I was going down a parking lot and this women didnt see me and hit the front fender of my car. She couldn't even turn out from one of the parking isles she basically rammed the front of my car. Now the husband said it seems to him that I hit his wife's car. WTF!!!!!!! That old B$&&$ admitted to not seeing me, and I was already infront of her before she even got to a turn. How do I know? I looked to the right and said "Oh ****". Plus there were no scrapes just a indent where she plowed into my car with the steel bumper of her truck. I'm so pissed off right now. Do any of you know what I can do if these f$&@'s won't admit to the accident being their fault. Even after offering to pay for my car to be fixed by "their guy". Then the moment I say it's going to cost more than 2k in damages to have my car fixed at a good shop near me they say it was my fault.

They didnt back into me. I was going down the road going straight. They came down one of the parking isle and hit me. As for pictures I don't have any on my phone ill have to upload some later when I can get to a pc. I don't get some people I really don't. She even told te cop she didnt see me yet frikin rammed my car. -_- I'm not having a very good day today. The fender is ruined, hoods not aligned right, the headlight broke in two, and the bumper is indented. -_-

So there was a cop involved? So did you get a report? And please tell me their insurance information is known to you, and you're filing a claim.
/If you don't, they will. It always happens. Remember, kids, get a cop report and file the claim. It's CYA law.

You got screwed. I would have sued her and let a judge decide.

2. Yes and no. Our local club does cruises from time to time and I like to record them from my perspective. It's also not a bad idea to have it in case ANYTHING happens, not just to me. If a car gets t-boned in front of me, I can provide the video for insurance purposes, etc. Also, if I get pulled over and the cop id being a Richard/giving me a hard time, it's all being recorded for court purposes.

1. It's the same size as the mirror only long enough for the camera to peek off the edge a bit.

And if you are caught doing something wrong it can be confiscated, searched, and used as evidence against you.
