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.

i am amazed how nice my daughter's 04 hyundai accent looks-the boby shop did an excellant job and it runs excellant.it took the body shop almost a month to get it fixed-between the ordering of parts, etc. make sure the place fixes it the way you want. do not accept it until they do.-match the paint. some colors are harder than others. good luck and glad there were no injuries but sorry it was brand new.

If you cannot locate the hit and run bicylce rider, you'll have to collect damages from your girlfriend. When an item is borrowed it must be returned in same condition by law. If you think the relationship is not going to go anywhere, you might want to collect asap... or have her sign an i.o.u.
Don't wait till you break up to try to collect. It will be to late by then. See it happen on Judge Judy all the time.

That eases my mind. Thank you. Yeah, I assumed about a month for repairs. The guy on the phone said 10-12 working days after parts come in. Thanks again for the well wishes.

You have seven days to transfer your registration and your new vehicle is automatically covered by your current insurance provided that the new car is replacing the old car. See this:

As for your agent not working - your insurance company might. Try calling them direct to see if they are available on the weekend.
 
As for the MA insurance program - I'm looking forward to real competition because I'm an experienced, suburban driver with an excellent driving record and credit history. I pity those without the above because it'll be just like the last time they tried competition - rates rose 3-400% overnight. I remember my Dad's 73 Vega costing over $1K to insure because we lived in the city. The car wasn't worth $3K brand new!!

Any agent worth his commission welcomes contact at home by his clients. All my stationary, business cards, and advertising included my home 'phone number. Sometimes we agents are needed at hours other than 8 to 5 M-F.
 
It has been 12 years since I sold my business and I'm still honored to get a 'phone call from a former client/friend who has a need to get some advice.
 
My wife, the pharmacist, often receives professional calls as well.
 
We are happy to retire where we worked as it is my intention to dance with the people who paid for the band.

Progressive-DUI-Now what? by jickybob
Sep 06, 2007 (6:57 pm)

I had progressive insurance when I got in an accident due to a DUI. I am not sure if they are going to cover me now as obviously, the accident was considered my fault and all, and I now have a DUI on my record. My question for everyone is this: now that I have a DUI on my record, what type of repercussions are there going to be from the DUI and does anyone have any experience with insurance after a DUI and insurance afterwards? I have stopped drinking, praise God, but they are not going to care about anything but my driving history; I know this, but I want to know who a reputable company is (not Allstate or Nationwide as they are scamartists!) that may cover me for a low amount of money, or the lowest available with the record I now have. Thank you in advance for anyones help!
