Damn Monday, couldn’t you spare my car?

At first glance it looks like a new bumper would fix it. But looking more closely:

Damnit the paint on the rear quarter panel is cracked too :(

Dammit! Fender bender? Somebody hit your car while parked?

Slow speed traffic accident, we were both turning of at a offramp, but the other driver had to go  left to prevent hitting another car, but I was there... I could see it happening in slowmotion, but couldn’t do anything (flooring it might have had me hit another car)

Damn...at least nobody was hurt and it sounds like both cars were barely damaged... :(

Just a front bumper for him, and a rear bumper + some paint for mine hopefully. He was fully at fault, so my insurance told me to go ahead to get it fixed already.

Sorry to hear this. The good news is that it will get fixed by the other driver’s insurance. The better news is that no one was hurt.

I had an accident a couple of months ago that according to my insurance company was my fault (a literal dirt transfer from my front license plate frame to the rear bumper of a Camry). The other driver still has not filed a claim, but it broke a 29 year streak of clean driving for me.

Yeah, that’s the good thing. And it gets rid of some older parking damage, which is a nice plus.

Ah too bad you didn’t get to make it 30 of clean driving! Sounds pretty minor though, maybe the driver forgot about it, it’s a Camry driver after all :p
