WEll for the second time in the past three years I got rear ended on the drive home. We have a nasty little highway that is the cause of many a fender bender and I got nailed again. With traffic jumping in and out of lanes the folks ahead of me slammed on their brakes.... I always give myself plenty of room knowing the way people drive on this stretch. Well the guy behind me wasn't paying attention and slammed into me. I don't know how fast he was going went he hit me, probably around 30 to 35. The worse part was looking in my rear view mirror and knowing I was about to be nailed.
I'll take the car into the body shop on Monday and get the repair process started.
The scary part is he wants to pay me and not run it through insurance. Seems he was driving his dad's truck (Chevy s10) guy was early thirties, and doesn't want dear old dad to know he got into a fender bender. Since I've got a fair amount of neck and shoulder pain from the whiplash, he's just gonna have to man up and tell dad, as I'll let the insurance companies take care of this.
I grab two crappy cell phone pics last night.... it looks much worse in the daylight.
