Head-on collision, My Lotus against an old Mercedes E class :(
So I was on my way to the gas station to get some gas and go ahead and buy some tickets to the new 007 movie. While I was in the median waiting to turn into the gas station a Mercedes E class older one comes at me about 25-35 miles an hour. Im surprise at how well the Lotus held up and I am so happy to be alive thank God!
Yeah guys I was pretty upset at first, after all this is the second time someone as hit me without even seeing me. It's bright yellow and it looks crazy how did they miss me I don't know. Anyways ill miss her and just get another one. RIP my dream car.
Here's how this should go... Insurance payment for the total - buy back cost + your spare time disassembling everything usable + payments for parted out bits = new Lotus for you.
After the fact I would have got a big truck and ran them over, due to the fact that their vehicle is fine and can be repaired and ur vehicle is done and the insurance will low ball you. Even if they have enough insurance to cover ur vehicle you will be pissed when they offer you a low check for ur vehicle. Good luck how did they not see u what they thought you were a yellow light.
Not commenting directly about you but I think in every accident thread I've ever seen on here (I'm sure I haven't seen them all), it's never the Lotus drivers fault. Glad you're OK.
