Sorry to hear that :(. It is rather hard for ICBC to belive that the truck pushed you into the accord twice, unless the truck driver was stepping on the gas again after hitting you.

he stopped b4 he hit the accord.. truck hits him he hits the accord his car is a manual so it rolled forward and hit the accord again...

What does a car with a Manual transmission have to do with this?

its in the shop, i will pay deductable, and insurance will go up for 3 years, and back to current discount, so, its all good!

Thanks All!

then let them change lane. give way! give extra space in front of you and you will not get same problem next time.

ICBC stated policy, unless you have witnesses. Their opinion, no matter how you twist and change or however you want to put it. You did not give enough room to give yourself a full stop. In their minds, "if you held back far enough, even if she hard brake you will have room to stop."

But after you get over 25% at fault, your premium goes up. So being 50% at fault is just the same thing as saying 100% at fault.

No witness is very bad... it's basically a situation of he says she says. If truck driver continues to be a dick and bs about the story, then it doesn't seem like you have any option but to eat the 50%. I seriously feel for you though because I'd be extremely pissed if it happened to me. Best of luck.

Thank you guys, aww Revscene makes me feel family LOL :D

but yeah.. i've spoken with the adjuster manager, and have actually learn their difficulties.. at least the body shop has basically guarenteed that the car will be back to factory spec.. with no problems, and my premium only goes up 1300 for 3 years, vs 18k damage for the whole car possibly 10k up in the front of the car which means 5k to pay if i have to cover 50% of it.. so i think its a pretty fair game. ill take the deductable :D

as for why a manual car would roll into the accord.. nothing to do with manual or not, but i knew my clutch was depressed and i was on the brake when i stopped.. but when i got hit the first time my foot slip off of brake pedal.. then either i was hit twice or it engaged 1st gear..

to be completely honest.. my memories of what happened has actually faded after trying to deal with pain and damage.. :(

THANKS AGAIN REVSCENE!

Let me refresh your memory: You hit the car in frt of you. The truck hit you and you hit the car in frt of you again.

How did the car roll forward? Did you not disengage the clutch when braking?

Not really racist! 03-06-2010 05:17 PM

poor 300z

at least you aren't fatally injured

Hondaracer 03-06-2010 05:23 PM

hitting the car in front of you twice = GG

hard to belive that you came to a stop, she rolled forward, then you hit her again..

i was hit hard, the accord was pushed foward when i got push into it then it stopped again but i guess my foot just wasnt reacting :( i cant make myself innocent anymore i see.. its hard to explain what happened and i guess thats why adjusters will believe that im lying
