the 2012 trivial drivel thread

Did they take her away in cuffs?

Even though she was obviously drunk, I guess the police still have to go through the motions. They had her walk a line etc. At the time I left, she was taking a breathalyzer test.

It was kind of cool (except the hitting my car part). Because I witnessed the whole thing the police called it a citizen's arrest. I had to sign a form handing her over to the police department.

So Rams, want to tell me what I'm going to hear from my insurance company? I don't know if she had insurance; the police said everything I'll need to know about her will be on a police report in about 10 days. I'm supposed to provide that to my insurance company.

I guess my primary concern is, whether she was insured or not, am I going to have to pay my deductible? That would piss me off.

1) Did you report the claim yet?
2) I don't know the laws in Cali but in NY if you are not at fault, you will usually have your deductible waived or get it back once the insurance cmpany gets it from the at fault company.
3) If she had no insurance, you are stuck with the bill most likely. I am sure there is a law there that you must have insurance on your vehicle at least for liability and property damage even if she has no collision coverage on her own vehicle. Did she have a new car? If there is a lien on the vehicle, she has to have collision coverage i.e she has insurance.
4) The fact that she was DWI only strengthens your case. Too bad she only nicked your bumper or you could claim injuries and get some money. You low life insurance scamming soccor mom! Bitch.
