    Do you get a boner when you see a notification that someone replied to your comment, eagerly anticipating the next exchange? Does it give you a rush? How many times do you reread your responses? If you're this committed to winning an argument that doesn't matter, I think it reflects some...

    Being sued for accident I didn't cause - Please Help

    Six years. I repeat, SIX years I've been exiting that alleyway. Always hard to see. Sometimes there's a car coming, sometimes there isn't. Never had an accident. But this day, one of these hot shots who drives like an animal, endangering people in the neighborhood, kids all over, just to show...

    Being sued for accident I didn't cause - Please Help

    Sounds good. Much appreciated. I'll see what I can do to get an accident investigator so I know if my case is strong enough with what I have. It sounds like my insurance company will provide a lawyer, but I will see what a local attorney says as well. I might also try to find an expert who knows...

    @mightymoose - I spoke with my rep today. She basically wanted to know if I can even spare a dollar per month, or something ridiculously low, so she can counter offer and see how they respond. The worst they can do is say no and then we continue from there, and she indicated that she always...

    Being sued for accident I didn't cause - Please Help

    I understand your point of view and appreciate you being straight with me. From my perspective I inched ahead slowly in order to see, the way millions of responsible careful drivers do everyday without incident. If the other driver was speeding & not looking at the road, texting or whatever, I...

    By "full speed" I didn't mean the speed limit or any specific speed. Just that they were going very fast, while I was barely moving. Poorly phrased on my part perhaps.

    Thank you so much mightymoose (and cool name btw). You've been very helpful. As I mentioned in an earlier reply, the claim appears to have been filed with he court just a few days short of three years after the incident. I will get clarity on the statute of limitations, exact damages, and try...

    This is true, but I'm not looking to be exculpated by asking questions here. Just trying to see what my options are, as I've never been in this situation. I think I've got what I needed and I appreciate all of the feedback.

    Being sued for accident I didn't cause - Please Help

    I can speak to his speed based on how hard I was hit and where my car landed. I pull out of this alleyway every day for over six years. Sometimes it's hard to see, but I can still avoid getting hit. People are often driving like animals in this neighborhood and it's a frequent complaint of...

    Being sued for accident I didn't cause - Please Help

    Looking at the papers I was served (summons from Superior Court of CA), I don't find any language about personal injuries. Only mention of property damage. The accident occurred 3/6/16 and it appears that the case was filed on 3/1/19, so that may be why I don't see any mention of personal...

    Thank you. I DID notify my insurer right away, but there was confusion, because I missed that they made this final determination. Other than that I've been on top of communications regarding the incident and trying to take all of the appropriate required action.

    Being sued for accident I didn't cause - Please Help

    Please. I was never in an accident before this. I was inching out like a snail and got blasted by someone who was speeding. Regardless of who's fault it was legally, the other driver is FAR more dangerous on the road than me. Thankfully nobody got hurt. I'm only interested in serious advice from...
