So I got into an accident Friday two weeks ago, I rear ended someone and caused some damage to my car. The damage doesn't look that bad and the car is still drive able, but according to my friends body shop they told me Icbc authorized $6000 in damages (still have not heard back from the adjuster). I checked my cars blackbook value and it is around 5500-6000, and private sale around 7000-9000. It doesn't make sense for them to not write off the car right? I don't want to deal with trying to sell the car with a $6000 claim so I would rather get 6000-7000 and just get something else. What would you guys recommend me do? Should I try to negotiate and reason with the adjuster when he calls me?
