A month ago I was rear-ended at a stop light. There was $8,000 damage to my minivan. Because the frame was not bent, the insurance company had it repaired. The driver who hit me left the scene without exchanging information. Witnesses got the license plate, and my insurance company found him.
Fortunately, I do not seem to have been injured, although I did not sign the release because I have heard that sometimes symptoms present later. I was hit pretty hard, and was pushed into a big truck in front of me (no damage to the truck, only my hood), so I was really involved in 2 collisions.
My insurance company offered me $800. Is that reasonable? It seems to me that the driver should get some sort of monetary consequence for choosing to commit a felony, rather than give me his insurance information.
