Two wrecks in two days!!
« on: January 27, 2015, 06:08:14 PM »
Yesterday my girlfriend hit a deer , busted window out, cracked windshield , dented door and fender.  She's and Luckyvtge dog are ok.
  Today, about 5, I was sitting I. Traffic on 75N right before 575 split, and I was rear ended by a young girl doing 45ish, heard the tires screeching looked in my mirror and braced for the impact.  She pushed me into the car several feet in front of me, that car hit the car in front of it (4cars)
No serious injuries to people just cars.
  If that's on your way home and you got caught up in it, sorry, but it wasn't my fault.
  Both of our good cars are down,  looks like I'll be driving the has guzzling Camo truck 250 miles round trip for a few days!

Glad you both are ok.  Be ready for a sore neck in the am, especially if you braced. 

You might could rent tiny car and the gas savings would pay for it and the lawsuit you are going to file will more than cover it.

Wait, they should be providing you a car!  Rent one,  they will pay for it.   have a lawyer friend?   Mine says a rear end like that is $50k no questions lol.

I have a similar car wreck story. My jeep was still stock at this time. I was heading home on a Monday and was about a mile away from home when a garbage man jumps out from behind their truck into my lane and the Honda civic in front of me stomps on his brakes, I stomp on my brakes but was too close so I bumped into the civic and the car behind me bumped me and so i hit the civic a second time. Well so my front bumper and rear bumper and rear tire carrier got a little messed up. So a week goes by of trying to organize body shop repairs and that very next Monday about 100 ft before the location of my last fender bender, I stop at a stop light and an E350 Van rear ends me and causes my tailgate to dent in but the van took way more damage than me.

Two wrecks, two mondays in a row, 100 ft apart from each other.

however i ended up getting a nicer front bumper out of it.

Glad everyone is okay! things will get better soon!

Thanks guys!  Bad thing is, My GF (Connie) was involved in a wreck a few months ago ( guy tried passing 4 half semi dump trucks on a two lane mountain road, crossed into her lane she swerved to miss him and hit one of the dump trucks , he rolled he car twice. ). They totaled her car and we just recently settled and got a "new" car.  That was the one the deer hit.  Even though their insurance covered it and will cover my car, it's just a pain in the ass!

But, thankful for no injuries.  I do feel my neck tightening up.  Not good

Glad to hear no one was hurt. Perhaps I can quell the bad crap happens in 3 thing. I hit some black ice last Saturday and most likely wrecked my truck, but no injuries. So I'll be number 3. I won't high jack your thread more than this.
