hey, i did get a new truck out of the deal and most of my honey do list got a pass for a while lol... not looking forward to the legal actions to come though. upside is because of the circumstances it was deemed 100% the other persons fault. most importantly, my 16 year old was behind the wheel and luckily has zero injuries.
More importantly, 9405503699300688639690 - on its way to the post office.
Best wishes for a full and hopefully speedy recovery. Overall, it sounds like the circumstances could have been far worse.
I am not litigious by nature, but I don't feel any sympathy for insurance companies. They write for risk and make plenty of profit. I hope you are compensated to the max limit of the offender's policy. I would not be passive in this situation.
I look forward to the box pass.
