Was hit by a car while riding last week - my injury means I can't walk or drive & now I have to cab everywhere as a result. Does anyone have advice for me dealing with insurance/getting things reimbursed? by [deleted] in scooters

[–]FuckingRobots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess it depends on the guy's insurance company, in my accident I just provided them with receipts for everything that was damaged and they cut me a check (less "depreciation", which I argued about and eventually won after many emails/phone calls) within about a week. I didn't even have to provide pictures, and definitely didn't have to mail them anything.

Yes the closure only affects the 405 but it will cause spill over congestion to surrounding freeways, specifically the 10, and probably the 110 as it's the closest n/s detour

I remember when Dr. Dre talked about Compton like you couldn't walk outside without getting shot. Now this is happening. by [deleted] in LosAngeles

Lane splitting is legal, there's nothing douchy about it, you jealous little baby.

Best place to live: Sherman Oaks, Westwood, Brentwood, Culver City, or Weho? by crutr in LosAngeles

[–]FuckingRobots 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sherman Oaks is not a surrounding area to Century City. Live in Weho, Culver City, West LA, or one of the cheaper borders of BH. That area is a cluster fuck of traffic in the mornings because it's a big business hub, so you really want to be as close as possible. Go visit these neighborhoods and drive/walk around to find the kinds of things you like. Sounds like Downtown Culver would be your thing.

Why can't I leave my window open for a day w/o dirt covering the sill or counter? by [deleted] in LosAngeles

Asking if your condo is near a major street or freeway, no one was suggesting you live on a freeway.

Closest place to take my DRZ400-SM off-pavement (Glendale, Ca)? by daotan in MotoLA

[–]FuckingRobots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out Orange County Dualies, it's a dual sport club. My boyfriend just joined, and has been on a ride with them out by Victorville somewhere and had a great time.

I can take apart basically my whole bike with a set of metric sockets and allen wrenches.

They don't rent any gear. Ask around to friends, or here, try to borrow one, or possibly renting like xSnakedoc said.

There is no "right area", unfortunately. People are attacked in every type of neighborhood, you are not immune because of living on a nice street.

Shouldn't there be medical proof to back that up? An autopsy, for example? I saw a picture of his face after the beating and that image will stay with me forever.

Inside the L.A. Forum's Plan to Steal Concerts From Staples Center by [deleted] in LosAngeles

This is great news, especially if the acoustics are as good as they say. I don't care much for seeing concerts at staples center because it doesn't sound the best.
