so guess who just got in his first wreck
ya, its true.. i rearended someone goin about 15-20, a cargo van to be exact. somehow, my car wasnt damaged at all! well except for the liscence plate bracket. same cant be said for the van, i somehow managed to push his rear bumper in about 2 inches. wtf, how does my plastic bumper not even get damaged but i **** up the bumper on a ****in cargo van?!? i know it sounds like im bitchin, but im not, just confused, but good thing nothins wrong with my car since i got minimum coverage on it.. o well, only cost is the ticket for "failure to maintain proper distance" bitch ****! not sure what thats gonna cost yet. well im done ranting.

its not the ticket thats gonna cost you. You just got a citation so automatically thats hurting your insurance. Thats where its gonna kill ya. Cuz your insurance company has to pay for their damages.

ya i know, but the insurance is like paying off a loan, you pay it off monthly. the tickets gotta be all payed off at once, and thats whats gonna hurt me right now. i just got a raise tho so hopefully that will help out a little

he basically gave you the minimum for the ticket if thats all you got, when i got that here is was only $25. But the insurance in the long run hurts worse. Trust me. One accident will hurt your insurance for about 4 years

no, the part of the insurance that hurts you is the points.... vehicle wrecks always raise your isurance even if it's not your fault... in my first wreck when i was 17 my prelude got rearended by an f150 and pushed into a dodge ram... my car got completely totaled and my issurance went up b/c i was "prone to accidents" whatever the hell that means.

i know what you mean john, and rcjr, you probably got those points because you didnt have a "proper" amount of distance between you and the dodge. that happened to my friend and her insurance went up because of that
