I'm just looking for some opinions or advice from anyone who might have experience in Insurance or a similar scenario.
The other day I was rear-ended at a Drive-Thru. The other party busted up my trunk and rear bumper. The gave me all their information, admitted to fault, and went on their way. Their vehicle had no damage what so ever.
I called their insurance right away and they came and took photos and told me to call them in 1-2 days to see if they had an appraisal.
When I called, however, the adjuster told me that the other party told him that I put my car in reverse and backed into him!! Can you believe that! Like anyone would reverse through a drive-thru!!!
Anyway, now they are saying that the liability has "yet to be determined" and that the other party's vehicle needs to be appraised, then they will complete an investigation and determine who is at fault.
Has anyone had any similar experiences or heard of anything like this? What do you think will happen? Do you think they would actually believe this guy's ridiculous story?
I'm just freaking out because I need my trunk fixed and more importantly, I would HATE to see this guy get money for rear ending me!!
Any advice or opinions would be much appreciated, Thanks
