About 20 minutes ago, as I was drifting off to sleep, I heard what sounded like a distant accident.

My stepdaughter then pounded on my door and said, "Some one just ran into your car!"

The drunken son of a bitch hit the FULL-SIZED VAN that parks two houses down, hard enough to TURN IT 180 DEGREES AND LAND IT ON THE SIDEWALK, and then continued on to slam into MY car at high speed.

He hit his head in the impact, but was up walking around by the time I got out there. The fire department, police, and paramedics are out there now.

The front of his car is a crumpled mess. I've seen the rear or mine -- the left rear is about a foot or so in front of the right rear.

It's destroyed. It's fucking destroyed.

I can't take any more of this. I just can't. There's just been too fucking much, in too short a time.

Trick or fuckin' treat.

Jeebus. Dunno what to say... Hope the guy gets what's coming to him for the DUI.

Any idea if the guy has insurance?

If he hit his head he could have some interesting cranial issues.... walk about now, dead in a week.
Hope the insurance pays and he pulls a long sentence.

Wow. That's . . . if you didn't have bad luck, you'd have no luck at all. If you need anything, just ask!

I don't suppose California is an at-fault state? If anyone owes you BIG, it's this idiot, and his insurance needs to be sued into the ground.

In the space of an instant, I went from having reliable transportation with no monthly payments to being a pedestrian.

If his insurance doesn't cough up enough to leave me both with transportation and payment-free, I will sue this motherless lush until he has to sell a KIDNEY.

Maybe both.

I wish I could offer more than just sympathy right now.

All the best about pulling through this most recent setback.

So, you broke his fucking legs, right? While the cops held him down for you?

Take today as the "deep breaths" day, if you can. I know you mentioned that you didn't have collision from your last post about the Grape, but considering it was parked properly and unused, it might be comprehensive coverage in this case... Also the other guy hopefully has insurance and perhaps a personal interest in making you financially happy (one can hope).

Good Thoughts.

You're building up some good karma, dude.

Wow. I would have caved the guy's head in if I'd walked outside to find that. :p Hopefully you can get this all covered by insurance. Sounds like you need a baseball bat and a hug. :p

Nothing to add but long-distance emotional support.

Holy fuck! *HUG*

Well, I'm glad that you and your family weren't in the car at the time.

O F^CK! That sucks!!! I am so sorry! Glad he didn't hit a person, though! Why your poor little car is the target, GEEZ????

Oooog!

I hope he pays for everything and buys you a brand new car today. Actually, no, we all know now we can't trust the guy's judgment; better you should pick it out yourself.

This is a note of sympathy. I dunno how your insurance system works, but how-ever it does I hope things turn out alright for you.

Oh for the love of---

I hope insurance pays and things are sorted out painlessly, and I am glad that no innocents got injured during the making of this major mess. And I hope you have some serious good fortune coming your way pretty soon.
