The car is at Prestige Mini body shop waiting for the adjuster. It's taking longer because they're not on the insurance companies "select" list.

^He he...but seriously, potholes are crazy frequent on Tristate roads, I bent all 4 wheels on my VW GLI in less than a year here in NYC. But yeah, there was probably nothing you could've done to avoid that accident - the thing I try and do is stay out of people's blind spots as much as I can - it's almost like riding a motorcycle - you have to engage all your senses, your brain and eyes have to scan the road ahead and all the things around you to be able to react the best way possible should the need arise. Good luck with the repair, it's really a shame for such a nice new car to get damaged like that but at least nobody got hurt.

I literally had to stop eating my yogurt because I became physically ill looking at all these damage pictures. It really is a sad world in which people do not "drive" anymore. I always drive on the defense in both of my cars. The smaller you are the more you have to act like you are a motorcyle for sure. I really hope all of your cars can be fixed quickly and get you all back to motoring.
