Most recent HEADACHE

Jerry was recently in a car accident...which has caused our most recent headache in our life. Jerry was going to the store when someone ran a red light and hit him straight on. The air bags deployed and everything. Thank God Jerry is ok. (I would have had to go and hurt the guy if he hadn't been!) Another reason to thank God is that there were four guys waiting to cross the street from AU who witnessed the whole thing and told Jerry instantly that it wasn't his fault. The police showed up and they gave the police their statements too.

Now the headache part....we are dealing with this guy's stupid insurance company. This guy hasn't even called to give them a statement or report that he was in an accident. I don't know what more they could need besides the police reports, but whatever...they are totally dragging their feet. The accident happened on a Wednesday night...they said that someone would be out to assess the damage within 24-72 hours. Six days later someone came out. Then he told Jerry it would be close as to whether or not they would total it, but someone would let him know Friday (yesterday). Jerry called and the adjuster is out until Monday. Of course. They are not returning Jerry's calls or our insurance companies calls. Then they sent us this long form to fill out and mail back. We got it yesterday and the earliest we can send it back is Tuesday...do you think they planned that...I do. They are just dragging their feet. Meanwhile we are paying for a rental car and are trying to decide what to do. We may have to file through our insurance and let them fight it but then we are out a lot more money until they pay our insurance company and we are at risk for our rates to go up for something we didn't do.

Needless to say...we are all more than a little frustrated! Anyways...here are some pictures of the damage. It's not all of it. Like I said the air bag needs replaced and both of the seat belts in the front. Also, the back door on the driver's side has a big crack in it. We'll keep you posted!
