But OTOH, the driver who hit me tried to burn me for nearly $3500 in repairs after I extended every courtesy to contact him.

That experience was enough to:
a) convince me that uninsured motorist coverage is mandatory.
b) never underestimate the depths people will sink to get out of paying up.
but tony didnt even make an effort to try and contact the guy once to see what he would say. regardless of past experiences everyone should be given at least one chance to explain, then based on previous experience if he seems shady you can make the call. but at least let him have an opportunity to try

If anybody even looks like they're going to hit my car, I'm gonna fucking kill them.

i don't understand whats so hard about this. call the guy up, the guy will explain, go get a quote, tell the guy how much, and hopefully he'll pay. if not, then go to insurance.

As much as I'd like to be optimistic about it.. I can see why Tony did what he did. Especially if he was as pissed off as I was when I first saw the damage.

That said, I agree that it would've been much better if he'd taken an hour or so to calm down. Acting in haste is never wise.

After careful thought...

I would have called a cop to file an accident report, called the guy to see what's up, then call my insurance.

I wouldn't have taken it personally though h: I would choke a bitch, but nothing personal
