my vent for the day

I was in College Park yesterday and trying to park in a narrow space in a tight parking lot. I scratched the car next to me when trying to pull in, and the woman was in her car. Her car was barely scratched, mine was worse than hers. It also wasn't a nice car. I did the right thing and exchanged insurance information, apologized, she was nice about it, and I walked away confident that no one in their right mind would actually report this to their insurance -- it was barely anything!

Of course, I just got the phone call from her $#)(*$#@ insurance agency. I know, I know, this was my fault and I'm responsible. BUT COME ON! I can't believe she actually reported it. Honestly, if I had been in her situation, I probably wouldn't have even bothered to get the insurance information. 

UGH. This ruined my day.

  • Did you offer to pay for it out of pocket instead of going through INS?  That is what I would have done or would do prior to letting insurance pay for it. It may be cheaper than your deductible.

    I know my H and his father are ridiculous anal about their vehicles and would have wanted it fixed regardless if the other person felt it was "barely anything".  Unfortunately, it isn't your call with the damage and how you perceived the damage.  What you perceive as minor may be major to them.  I know you're claiming responsibility and just venting, i am just making an observation on how another may view the situation.  Regardless, it sucks and sorry you have to deal with it.
