My daughter also totaled her car and immediately called me versus the police -- so stressful that I have PTSD and am immediately anxious when I see her number light up my phone!

I don't know how it works in MI, but if this woman's license was suspended I'm not sure her insurance will cover the loss at all since she obviously wasn't following the provisions of her policy (if she even has one). Fingers crossed you can get some kind of compensation for your vehicle.

I had a transport ambulance (no one in it they transfer people to appts) pull across 3 lanes of traffic and hit me and the cops came and said it was no ones fault. I think they knew each other. I was on my way to the eye dr and was lucky I could still drive my car, my eye dr was shocked I still came. I was very upset and it is a scary thing to go Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09749156803375783702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-52904316478211496282023-05-24T19:00:41.257-04:002023-05-24T19:00:41.257-04:00SO glad Eli is okay!

My husband and I hit a drunk man (we weren't at fault, and he was banged up, but survived), who was crossing the street in a very dim lit area at night. It took us a good 6 months to be able to drive down that street again. It's going to take him time to get his nerve up again. I feel for him though.

Guy pulled out and he couldn't stop in time. Car was totaled really only because it wasn't worth much in the first place (not as substantial of damage as yours). Police found the other guy at fault.

I second the advice just to get Eli checked out...things like neck or back injuries can show up later and you want to be able to get compensated if he has medical bills for injuries related to the accident. Lastly, I'd suggest editing some of the details out about the accident and theHeather Durickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07480410088341445567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-83452349054450431402023-05-24T10:44:37.776-04:002023-05-24T10:44:37.776-04:00Did Jerry call HER insurance?

Even though you only had liability, since she is at fault, her insurance will have to pay you fair market value of the Jeep. I'm sorry that happened, I'm more concerned about Eli's PTSD from accident, I had a bad accident in college and it still affects me.
