| | | Accident
What is the name of your state?Arkansas My son had a accident April 26 2005 , the guy pulled out of a private driveway and hit my son on the main road , when I got there the guy admitted fault and said he didn't see my son and he was sorry, but when the police arrived the story was different come to find out the guy worked for the city department and knew the officer . When I received the police report he had my son at fault, the damages tell the true story , I called this guys insurance company myself and filed a claim for him, I have worked with everyone trying to get this resolved until last week, the insurance adjuster was suppose to investigate the accident and look at the damages but he never showed up and he won't return my calls, I am furious ,I've tried to do everything to avoid going to court but don't know where to turn, What can I do ? |

What can I do ? | Nothing. You have NO standing in this situation!!
So, how old is your son??

Why has he spent over $1.35M in legal fees to block disclosure... rather than spend $12 for a VALID birth cert to settle the matter? The 'certificate' he has presented doesn't qualify to get a drivers license, wouldn't allow a child to qualify for Little League, or for a real citizen to get a US passport!

My response:
JetX, we don't know if she has "standing" or not. For all we know, she's the owner of the vehicle - - thus, giving her "standing." But, she never mentioned that fact.

I just find it interesting how many parents (often WITHOUT any standing), keep insisting on managing their childrens lives.... and expect others to jump to their bidding.
Also, I feel that if the OP were the owner of the car, it would have been mentioned in her post..... but I might be wrong there.

| | | My son is 16, the car is in my name, the other guys insurance mailed me a letter saying they would pay 30% of the damages if I would pay 70%, this was bullcrap from the beginning. Also my 14yr old was a passenger, he had injuries to his leg and was taken to the doctor but they didn't list that in the report and the other guy had a passenger and she wasn't listed ,and the police dept, seemed to have lost all the witness statements and my sons own statement , it just seems strange to me that this guy says it was his fault and everyone that seen it said the same , but one officer changes it all.
The only thing I see here is maybe the guy that hit him would be in trouble with his job for the city if he has a wreck on his insurance.

| And why EXACTLY would you think that they feel your son is 70% liable for the accident?? Quote: |

| Not 'strange' at all. Though the statement that your son claims was made at the scene MIGHT be relevant.... the officer bases his opinion on a FULL investigation of the facts. Quote: |

| Hey, I have a different 'spin' on this. Maybe your son was speeding at the time of the accident, making him partially liable. Possible, huh???

| | | Well if you consider 35mph speeding then I guess he was! And that is on the police report , but maybe you figured all that out because he is 16 . | |
