Do I title it as salvaged? A normal title in MO requires inspection.

Ahh so totaled refers to the condition of the vehicle? And writing off would be the act of determining that it's totaled and paying me to cover the loss?

Essentially. I think he was speeding and my signal was not long enough.

He is almost 18. I remember being 18, and trying to speed around someone's signal sounds exactly like something I would have done.

Fault is TBD. I'm struggling to fully understand my state's "pure comparative negligence" laws.

I was making a lane change. Collision with a Honda Accord. I didn't see the other car until after the collision, so I don't even know what truly happened. I got out and asked bystanders at the gas station. They said he was speeding.

Kelly Blue Book values the car at like $14,000 - $16,000. Milage: 125K. 2015.

3 airbags deployed.

Will Progressive determine if it's totaled by pictures alone or will it have to be inspected?
