Crash, bang, wallop...
So a few weeks ago I got into a car accident, even though it was low speed (35 mph) I still got banged up pretty bad, I still have bruising etc. In my almost 11 years in the US this was my first accident so I got to sample the delights of car insurance claims and to be honest it effin annoys the crap out of me! Don't get me wrong Geico have been awesome but Michigan is a 'no fault' state, so even though I was in no way responsible I still have to pay the deductibles around $300 :frown: ggggrrrrr, rant over, carry on

Can you claim the deductible from the other's insurance? |
Re: Crash, bang, wallop...
Sorry to hear that Ash. 35mph is a good lick (is going to cause a fair amount of pain even if no bones are broken), so I hope you are making a good recovery.

yes, but you can get what is called "broadform" collision which you don't have to pay if the accident isn't your fault.

Re: Crash, bang, wallop...
Glad to hear you're ok. We've never lived in a 'no-fault' state and hope we never do after hearing your story!
