Got rear ended last night. I’m okay first off, but the GLI’S exhaust is bent, and the bumper is toast.

PSA with this is leave adequate room to stop in the wet. The guy in front of me didn’t so he had to brake hard suddenly, forcing me to do the same. Unfortunately the guy behind me didn’t leave enough space for himself to stop in time, so I was his brake

Now to figure out insurance and why my neck hurts.

Make sure you go to the doctor ASAP, coming from someone who chose twice not to go to the doctor.

Hi Okay, I’m Dad.

Did cops show up? You get a police report? Call his insurance company and explain what happened. Was he issued a citation?

Sounds similar to what happened to me . Needed a new bumper and an exhaust reworking, all courtesy of dingus. Glad you’re okay, hope the ‘Dub is back on the road soon!

Yep, go to doctor. I always call the cops no matter what, makes it so much easier dealing with insurance.

one thing i like about the WRX is that if the POS infront of my has to stop short, the WRX will have the ability to stop shorter. the downside to this is that the POS behind me will not....

Thanks. Let’s see how this turns out

Because otherwise he may misrepresent the facts, stating someone pushed him into you, or that you purposefully stopped short to make him hit you, etc. Also, your insurance agent may call his insurance agent and try to work out a better deal between themselves.

Because he hit you.. So his insurance is the one to pay out.. You SHOULDN’T have to even get your insurance involved at all.
