Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
wow that sucks something awful. It's a shame the lengths you are having to go to get any money out of it. At least he didn't hang just a little more left or things could be really bad for you.
PS - that gun kinda looks like a pellet gun to me, it looks like it has one of the twist things at the bottom of the grip to reload Co2. It may just be the picture though PPS - http://www.nbc15online.com/mediacent...videoId=241237 Spinning wheelies in a gigantic van? He must have a rear mounted 454 or something.

Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
I have a great idea, a wonderfully great idea (sorry, watched the "Grinch Who Stole Christmas with my nephew earlier)
get us the e-mail of the man who signs the check, we all send him an e-mail with a picture of our Burb and how much it is work, after a couple of thousand e-mails he'll be more than happy to pay you off. we'll make him an offer he can't refuse

Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
if only there was a way to make the drunk driver pay for all the damage .
in a way he made more than one life misserable youres and the cop who i guess just didnt wanted to become the hardnose cop we all know and hate , he may thank god on his knees he didnt kill anyone .

Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
Update:
The PPD have suspended the officer for 3 weeks no pay, I am waiting on the Risk Mgt Dept. from the City to send over their INS Rep for payment. If that does not work the way I believe it should. I will ask to see the Dash Cam Video from the PO car the night he was cited for Careless Driving. Alittle birdie told me there is some interesting stuff on the tape. I will use that if need be. Stay Tuned......... Thanks!! |

Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
Sue them all get the tape file a $1,000,000 suit against the city for negligence and the problems you are haveing adjusting to living life and the perpetual cost of a shrink due to your fears of a drunk guy in a van with a gun driving into your yard and house and doing you and your family bodily harm.
I may be over the top but get the tape and go for blood |

Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
I knw that this might seem silly to say, I know that most lawyers won't want the case because there is no instant cash for them. But maybe one of the universities in the area have a law program and may be a good resource as to where to go and what you can do to move this along to a reasonable end. I know that my girlfriends son did just this when he got into some trouble.
It gives the students real life experience and they actually bust their butt's digging and scrounging and some super great information. It's just a thought. Definately get the News media on your side.... it's your biggest asset. Especially now that they said they are not going to pay... put the monkey on their back. Use the public to pressure them.... Remember it's not an "us and them" it's "you against them" get the people that pay their salary's on your side... Good luck.... |

Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
What happened with regards to repairs on the other 2 vehicles? If the insurance company has authorized repairs on them, you can bet your bottom dollar they are going to try and subrogate their claim against the kid and the cop/city. Seeing as you still have unrecovered damages, you do need to make sure that USAA doesn't settle with anyone in any fashion that might impair your future rights of recovery for the suburban damages.

Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
You'd think (hope?) that somewhere on some forum (if not here) there was a truck enthusiast member who was an attorney and would be willing to help you out.

Re: Its Gone!!! hit by a DUI
MVPCO,
Give my buddy up in Milton a call about fixing your truck. His name is Todd Crutchfield (623-2277). He's the one that painted the '48. I'm know he'll give you a better deal than that.
