I fail to see anything wrong with either of them, at least nothing that a can of spray paint (Ford Red or Ford Blue) and a roll of duct tape (Alabama Chrome) can't fix...

i thought that would happen to my daughter's 04 hyundai accent- it had $7,500 worth of damage-they did not total it-repaired it. this is the third time it has been hit since new-probably close to $20,000 in repair costs so far over the years-

Are you referring to the parking lot dings I see there?
 
GEEZ...I sure hope those cars don't get fixed again....can't see how they would.
 
INCIDENT WITH BIKE -- your GF may have screwed up. Bicyclist could possibly have been liable for damage, or you might have recovered the deductible. A bicyclist has to obey all traffic rules far as I recall.

Probably would have had to go after the bicyclist in small claims court. I was pretty mad when she said she didn't get information.

In Illinois, a new teen driver can only have one non-relative in their car under 20 for the first six months of their licensing period. Does anyone know what the penalty would be for a new teenage driver that got caught with more than one teen in their car? Like is it a moving violation and will it make insurance go up when they were caught?

Problem is, in New Jersey a lot of cars like that end up at the salvage auctions with clean titles... its a real problem.
 
All you have to do is steal their identical twins.. swap VINs, locks and a few modules and whos the wiser?

"...when she SAID she didn't get information..."
 
That is the oldest trick in the book. If a girl wants a guy's number she bumps him and then gets his number "so I can call you with my insurance info"
 
Check her pocketbook. I bet you find his number there.

Buying insurance in MA by threeifbyair

Is there anywhere I can get insurance in Massachusetts on the weekend? I'm thinking of taking a trip down to CarMax (or possibly some other out-of-state dealership) to buy my next car, but I'm wondering if there's a way to go down there on a Saturday, decide I want the car, and then drive it back. (Assume for now that this is an additional car and I'm not trading one in.)
 
I know my current agent only works M-F 9-5, but I'm guessing there must be somebody out there who writes MA insurance online or over the phone at weekends.
 
Oh, the joys of Taxachusetts' weird insurance regime...
 
(For those of you who don't know, none of the majors will touch MA. Allstate should be renamed 49-state. And Progressive, State Farm and Geico also steer clear of here.)

It's my understanding you are automatically covered by your previous policy, presuming you are in good standing and your coverages are the same. Then when you get home you just call in your new VIN #.
 
But you should check with your agent before you take off.

So my car is now at the collision center at the dealership (where I purchased the car). His estimate is $1,000+ < the place where my car was towed (initial estimate). Should I be concerned? nj2pa2nc: How does your daughter's car run? If they do decide to repair my car... I'm worried that it will need fixed left and right.
