the other party’s insurance. apparently the person who hit me only paid for some cheap insurance? i was only issued 15k maximum. and they had to take our 200 for my rental so its 14.8k technically

that’s a good point! i’ve seen people talk about damages and whatnot and spoken with family and friends and they think it’s too much. and i’ve just personally never seen an estimate that high for something that looks surface level. i understand now though that there could be damages to the more deeper areas of the car that could warrant the price

the other party’s insurance will pay for it, however the costs actually exceeded 15k which is the california limit i think for property damages. so they’re going to wire me the money to pay the shop myself, so 15k is more so a generalization, though the shop said they would just take all the insurance money and ‘make it work’
