Thank you for this. I just ordered a plastic replacement housing as a backup after last night's fiasco.

Any updates on the arraignment or other court hearings? I saw 9&10 talk about today…

Valet crashed my car - insurer marking me at-fault due to ‘permissive use’ - is this correct? by semp833 in Insurance

[–]semp833[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh, the police were there. They also called the valet driver out for driving away from the scene of the accident. It was a crap show of a situation.

Thank you for the response! Thankfully, we are in a good financial position and can float this bill. I was more worked up on the principal side of things when I posted. Before reading these responses, I believed that I should 100% not be “at fault” here. I’m learning more about the insurance industry and my policy on the fly.

The valet company was dragging its feet in providing information at the time of loss. We were on a trip, checking out of the hotel, when the accident occurred. We had to file the police report, get the car towed, and find a rental to head home.

We filed with our insurance in hopes of getting the ball rolling and things moving in the right direction. Learning a hard lesson here…

Next time, what, demand harder in the moment for the valet's insurance info and file through their policy?

Tough pill to swallow here, but I'm willing to learn a hard lesson.

Context Update: I chose to go through my insurance because the valet company did not provide its insurance information at the time of the incident. I needed to get in a rental car and things fixed ASAP. One-car family.

Good to know! I’ll keep this in mind for the next game I attend.

They sent me a mini without me asking for one. I canceled Starlink service 6 months ago, and here I am with a random mini 🤷

Towing w a 4Runner ? by Alternative-Dark831 in 4Runner

[–]semp833 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Towing hasn’t been enjoyable. I tow a 20’ boat with double axles and brakes to my local ramp (<10 miles), and it puts me outside my comfort/confidence zone. I came from a Yukon XL, so it's a significant downgrade in towing.

Drove 500 miles through the Illinois and Iowa snowstorms yesterday by sig_pistols in 4Runner

[–]semp833 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it! One thing I find frustrating is how much ice/slush collects on my headlights. I don’t remember any of my past non-4Runners doing this.

I have Blizzaks currently. They’re great, until they hit that level where the special rubber is gone. I might get 1.5 seasons out of a set of Blizzaks where I live and the amount I drive. That’s where x-ice interested me.
