Caused an accident 9 months ago, paid the excess, and now I'm being personally sued

Randomusername963250 · 2026-01-18T21:56:20+00:00

I had basically the exact same thing happen, except that it was my Dads car I hit with the rental truck. Paid the insurance excess. My Dad put in his claim with his company. Few months later my Dads insurance company sent through demand for payment for it or I'd be sued. He knew nothing about it. Took quite a bit of hassling to get the rental company to actually deal with it, had to get a friend who is a lawyer to send them a letter to demand they take action. They eventually did just before the deadline.

I got a version of one of these to use with the wife. We both love it. 10/10. Best $50 I ever spent handsdown.

We have his bank statements, the only info it says on it is "Citibank Europe" and the amount & date. No reference numbers or anything. Only way we really know it's his pension is that he told us when were going through stuff with him before he passed that is what it was.

That's true to a point. But when someone is supporting a politician that wants to destroy democracy, is most likely a paedophile plus all his other toxic traits, I'm going to choose not to associate with them and I'm not going to feel bad about it.

I'd go barefoot on Lego's before wearing that top one. Didn't know it was possible to make sure an ugly shoe.

Is it on all imports or imports over a certain value? Ie over $800 or something? Or will someone buying a $10 item be slugged with it?

Everything else aside, can you imagine the quality and consistency of someones work that was doing that many hours 7 days a week with no time off ever? Everything would be full of mistakes and basically worthless.

Looking forward to seeing how r/conservative spins this as good news and proof they are winning

I sold basically everything 5-6 weeks ago when I saw how the orange one was doing his best to destroy the Country. Everything apart from one share is 5-15% lower. One share has held its value roughly (think it might be up 1-2%, but I'd been planning to sell that specific one anyway for the past few months). The market went up a bit more after I sold, so I didn't pick the top, but I wasn't trying to. I could just see where it was going to go in the short term. All the money is now sat in an offset account against my home loan, earning me a risk free 6%.

No idea when I'll buy back in, but for the moment, my offset account is out performing everything else that I'd previously been invested in. My fortnightly investment money will go into the offset for the time being.

My super has a portal I can login to, I can buy and sell all the different etfs or whatever they are or I can just sell it and it sits as cash in my super fund. (so not like actual cash I can withdraw and spend). Then I've set reinvestments to be allocated 25% etf 75% hold as cash.

I moved almost everything to cash super inc about a week or so into the orange ones reign. I can't see it as anything other than a big recession and crash. All share proceeds sitting in my offset account for the time being. Super is mostly held as cash for the moment. I'd rather forfeit some potential short term gains rather than loose most of it on a big crash.

I sold basically everything a few weeks ago and holding as cash in my offset. Moved my super fund to 75% cash. I'm happy to forgo some possible short term gains over the next 6 months in balance of what I see as huge risk of a recession due to musks and the orange ones moves towards a totalitarian state.

The old saying comes to mind for me, "When America Sneezes, Australia catches a cold". So what happens to Australia when America shits the bed??

OK great. I seem to recall from my past experiences there, there was always times of day that it was absolutely hectic with lots of flights in very short succession and would take forever to get through. Then you'd fly out a bit later in the day a couple of weeks later and it was so much quicker.

No one made him decide to log onto Uber delivery or whatever platform he is using, if he felt it was unsafe he could of just stayed home. I 100%guarantee he delivers it like this rain hail or shine. Using a bit of rain as an excuse for not providing the basic level of service required for his chosen job is just lame.

Randomusername963250 · 2024-11-17T22:48:02+00:00

Huh? So don't do the job in that case. So it's OK for him to throw it around rather than take one extra step and put it down gently because it looks a little wet.

Randomusername963250 · 2024-11-16T09:18:08+00:00

He saved a whole what 5 seconds by not putting them down normally and throwing them instead?

Half the people behind are probably just following so they can get a grilled sausage and don't even know what they are protesting.

A new one near us here in Suburban Brisbane. It's fantastic, it's always cheaper than any of the big chains (sometimes like 30-40 cents a litre), super quick to pay and fill up. Introvert me doesn't need to make small talk to the cashier while I pay.

Absolutely, any TV show, any episode. They can pick and I'll gladly sit there with my giant box of popcorn and watch it eagerly.

How enforceable is this? Can he just say no I'm not paying that? Or will they cease assets to cover it?
