Totaled Truck
 

My truck was T boned by a 18 wheeler Saturday with my wife and 2 kids in it because the driver of the 18 wheeler wanted to pass her before she turned. In a NO PASSING ZONE!!!! Over $20,000 in damages the truck was totaled.

Was everybody ok? dont worry those truck companies have some serious insurance coverage

As long as no one was hurt, I would not sweat it. Trucks can be replaced, people can't and the tractor has Good Surance. Word to the wise, let them make a settlement before you go and give an ambulance chaser 40% of that settlement. Do your homework on the value of your truck and the cost of a replacement and don't try to retire on what you think they owe you. P/M me if you have any other insurance questions regarding your unique situation.

Yeah man, vehicles are disposable, people aren't. As long as no one was hurt, thank your lucky stars! Insurance will handle the rest and when they are in the wrong, they typically handle it very quickly to diffuse the situation.

I hope everyone walked away unscaved.;)

Yeah for the most part. My wife has been hurting the most. They all went to the hospital after it happened.

as long as they ok.....trucks gets made brand new everyday.....would like to see the pics though all i got is red x's

Yeah i know, I'm mad at the truck driver for putting my family i that situation and then the truck driver got out of his truck and yelled at my wife and told her it was her falt.

was it privately owned or a large company?Glad your familys ok!!

Kudos for offering your assistance. This can be an overwhelming experience if a person does not have someone on the side to ask for guideance besides the 40% legal hounds....

And Powell, I'm glad everyone is still alive dude. I hope everyone starts to feel better soon...:)

It was a company, not sure what the name is.

Dont sign ANY THING WHen the insurance company
calles tell them your family are under doctors care.
Drag it out make them sweat it out. Glad to
hear your family will be ok!

old boy wouldnt be yellin at my wife! we would be rolling in the street! glad everyone is ok!

Sometimes it is better to walk down the hill d "DO" them all than run down and "Do" one grasshoppa. Drama will get ya nowhere today,gotta use the ole knoggin!

People seem to lose their sense of control when collisions occur. I see mad
people almost daily over this and my response is, "were you hurt?"

90%say no and, to that I say, "then, what's the problem?"

These things can be fixed! And, that "doctor's care" crap, the next time your premiums go up, don't complain if you've recited
those words!

40% to an attorney, another large % to taxes, fed, state and local doesn't leave that many % Left!
