I wan driving on a one lane road and heading towards an intersection when another car failed to stop at a posted stop sign and went across my car, and we collided. The front bumper of my car ran into the rear passenger door of his car and got badly damaged. I would like to know in situation like this, how likely will i be able to claim the whole compensation from the other driver's insurance company? If the other driver denfend for himself saying I neglected and hit into his car, how am I supposed to do? Your advice and help would be highly appreciated.

I'm looking for instructions how to use properly a police radar.
The type is Genesis Directional S/N GHD-01734. I found a lot of stores
that are selling it and all sorts of specifications, but not actual
instructions.
There must be some minimum time required to detect and identify a
vehicle.
Can somebody direct me to the manual that local police comonly use for
this purpouse?

My dad helped me get a car and he got one for me in KS 30 days ago. He registered it there but I live here in FL and I was wondering if I have to re-register it again when they drive it down here or is it ok to have it registered there for a whole year and drive it here. But im planning on getting a FL car insurance for it. I just don't really wanna pay another registration fee again that's why I'm asking.

I just bought a used car and brought it back home. I noticed several things that I asked the sales manager about. The explanations ended up to be false, so he basically lied to me about certain items inside the car. Can I do anything? Please help!

I drive a 94 e420 and every morning and afternoon when I start the car the power steering groans for a while, the problem is getting worse, and seems to be bad when it's cold out. Do I have air in my power steerin system? or is my fluid partially freezing? Either way I guess I'll have to change the fluid, if I do and there is air in the system do I need to do any other repair to prevent air from getting in again?

- I know there is a lv.1 leak out of the pump, a small seal in the middle of the part has a hairline leak, I was just going to leave it there because it's so minor, could this be my problem?

I am looking to buy a 2001 Corvette but I have looked at some that say "this one does not burn oil like most 2001 vettes" So am I safe to assume that all 01's burn oil? Is it just this specific year? Thanks!

Can I have the repair shop or the insurance company fix these problems

First is that they did not replace a fender that is bent 1/4 inch outward, they repainted it but it is still bent out.

Second is that they were suppose to repair and re-surface the hood. They obviously did not sand the hood as they pointed over pine sap and several chips, there are even some small "pits" that are not covered in paint with bare metal exposed.

The same repair shop also installed a broken headlight with JB weld

Are these reasonable complaints, should they fix them?

Ok, my truck was damaged front and rear.

Both headlights had fallen out and been damaged, the mounts were broken. So I was looking at the truck after I got it home and I noticed that one of the headlights was not new. So I wondered how they put the old broken one back in. They did so with JB Weld on two of the broken mounts.

I assume that I am rightfully entitled to a new headlight, I have the feeling that the repiar shop ran over budget and tried to cut costs.

Can I do anything about this, surely they cant fix my truck with JB Weld?
