neighbors oops!
This is second time my neighbor has gotten us! We have a one lane driveway. I guess that they thought we needed more contours on the cars, both cars were red.

Time to widen that driveway to two lanes. Has to be cheaper than continually repairing body damage.

Yes! But the wife decided that Hawaii was a better deal than the drive way being widened and paved. FYI this is her car

I am still waiting for a return call from their insurance company, left message @9:08 A.M. EST.

Or maybe they block your driveway and you have done everything to get your point across so you just push them out of the way . Seriously I have thought about it more than once .

update
I had to call them again 7-8-13 in the afternoon, oh were having problems with the voice mail system But they were very nice to me but they had to verify my story with the owner of the other car!

$1638 estimate from the dealer for repairs.

No, they don't have good prizes anymore.

I agree that you'd think after the first incident they would have been more careful and learned how to avoid it.

Anymore calls from Jake and your wife will be going to Hawaii alone.
