Ok, this morning on my way to work i rear ended someone.
The Story:
Driving down I-44 i noticed traffic slowing in front of me, so i slowed. We finally came to a stop.....then we move at about 2-5 MPH. I'm passing a Dealer's only auction that had this wrecked STi that i've had my eye on for while and i'm triing to find it as we slowly move by the lot. Well i quicly notice that the car in front of me stops and i slam on the brakes and stop about 2 feet behind her. Kinda close.... Well, during my hard braking a empty water bottle i had came from the backseat and went under my seat. It rolled right up under my clutch and got wedged. At a complete stop 2 feet away from this Toyota Avalon let the clutch out to get the bottle out............but i had just put it in first gear. The car jumped forward and bumped the car in front of me.....
The lady had alot of damage on her car before i ever hit it. Neither car was damaged due to this tiny impact. She still wanted to swap info so i did. She later admitted that the damage was already there, and "don't worry about it" "I'm in the clear" I thought. I just got a call from insurance company.......she filed a claim, and wants here whole bumper replaced. This ***** is not getting a penny out of me now!!!!!!!! IT'S ON!! What should i do?
I already have a guy coming to see my car and investigate but i screwed up not having the police come out. But i figured since we aren't hurt and the cars are fine why bother.
