bye bye car
Long story short,
I got hit by a parapalegic in a white van while merging onto 283 east. My grand am is totaled. Photos soon.
Fault is not yet determined. He was speeding, and thus i misjudged my ability to merge in time. he tried to correct for my moving into his lane, and hit my passenger side rear bumper. The impact was strong enough to rip my head unit and center console dash assembly from the factory securing and put it into the passenger footwell and seat. I was going 45 when he hit me, and theres no way a 20mph impact could have done that to my car. he had to be going at least 70, probably 75. My wheel well was filled with my bumper, and my tire shreded. The entire right hand side of my trunk was imploded.
fucking stupid situation.
I better get the KBB value for my car, which is listed as $1,430.

You won't. Junkyards typically give you anywhere from $0-100 for totalled vehicles. Sucks, I know.
the junkyard won't be paying me, the other guy's insurance does. if he is found at fault, his insurance company has to by law.
