Dealing with auto insurance company...
Got hit head on by a young lady who crossed two lanes of traffic in town to hit my '93 Dodge pickup with her '90's Honda Accord. She and I were not injured in any way. The unfortunate young lady stated to the police officer that she was taking medication that made her left arm "weak." Any words of advice in dealing with her insurance company? My mechanic and his body-shop friend believe the insurance company will total the truck. It has a Kelley blue-book value of about $1,500. Thank you.

1. Get the police report
It'll be the best guide to tell you how much leverage you have.

3. This is what YOUR insurance co does, that's why you have insurance.
Your premiums are paid, right?

And next time you get insurance, make SURE you pay for the medical premiums and go to the hospital.
