At least it was Eddie's car and not yours.
Ok here is the story...
So, my sis and I are taking eddie to the airport...we drop him off and drive backinto the city for some dinner.
After dinner, we are about to drive back home...I get on the highway and I feel the car(Eddie's Car by the way)...I feel it jerk and find it acting screwed. Sure enuff, on the highway and in the middle I must say, the car dies...it's in drive but it's just not moving....how screwed up. So, dead in the middle of the highway and it's Rush Hour with everybody trying to get home from work...needless to say, we get shout at and honks...So, Me shouting back my nice choice words...hahaha...my voice is shot by the time a two truck comes. This man, is in a rush and says he's off and the only thing he can do is move us out of the way, so we move the car on the shoulder, yet the car is still in the major highway, but at least it's moved to the side. Supposedly all the tow Co.s are closed cuz it was late. Well, My sis and I start to walk about 100 yrds to the service station to make a phone call. Nicely enuff, a guy stops and drives us to the service station...so that was cool of him.
Anyways, we make the call and my Dad picks us up..keep in mind that we live 2 hours away from Houston. So, We drive home....and decide to just go home and come in the morning to deal with, cuz my Dad wants to call and get allthe crap together. So morning comes, My Dad and myself drive back, and the plan is to have the car towed to the nearest Chevrolet Co. so they can fix it and I can drive the car back. I tell my dad let me get on the highway just to make sure the car hasn't been towed already...so I get on the highway and what did we see?...A totaled back smashed to the front Pontiac Sunfire...The back pushed to the front and the car looking like almost half a car. Turns out it was a hit and run...The police says it had to be a Huge 18 Wheeler truck that hit it. If it was a normal car or medium truck...the people hitting the car would of been killed instantly. So, turns out an 18 wheeler hit it and just went thru it and kept on going. Police said that either the driver was drunk, fell asleep for a few seconds, or the truck that hit cold of been carrying drugs...so hell if they were gonna stick around. The truck hit the car even though the car was pushed over way to the side of the highway where lights are everywhere so you could see the car.
So, That's my nice this past weekend story.
When Bad Luck comes it comes in doubles...haha.

That so sucks!I'm in a similar boat bro.Some Jackass tried to go around my car as I was making a left turn Thursday and smashed the shit out of my car.Now his insurance company has denied the claim because they say I had my right turn signal on and was pulled over to the right and then suddenly went left and hit his car.Total bullshit but I'm completely fucked because there was no witness and I didn't realize the extent of the damage on my car because it was dark so cops were not called to the scene and I filed the accident report several hours later after realizing my car was pretty fucked up.The Officer who saw my car doesn't work until Friday.I'm hoping he will/can write me a statement saying that it is obvious due to the damage on my car that I was hit and not vice versa and that the other guy had to go into the oncoming lane of traffic to go around me either way,which is illegal even if I had the wrong turn signal on.(Which I didn't. I was going to work,I knew where I was going.)

Does Eddie know yet?
When I went to Texas, we got about an hour outside of Houston and our car broke down. We were able to sllllooooooowwwwwwwlllllllllyyyyyy pull off the road and found a service station right off the highway. To this day, that service station proved to be the coolest place I have ever taken my car. Here my buddy and I are, looking all Glam/Punk and shit, in the middle of backwoods Texas (sorry Raggz, but this place did seem to be in the middle of nowhere, and quite rural) in 1988 or so, and these guys were really cool. They saw the plates on our car, asked us how long it took to get there, which was 19 hours, and they freaked out! They couldn't believe we made it that far in that short of a time.
The part our car needed had to be called in from an autoparts store. We sat around for about an hour, and the part never showed. I went on up to the service door, and inside I heard the guy swearing to his mechanics, then he got on the phone and started swearing to the guy on the other line about how he had a couple guys who drove there from Chicago, waiting for their parts, and he would be damned if he was going to let us leave thinking all Texans were lazy assholes, and then told the guy to get his ass moving before he drove on over there and got the parts himself.
The parts were there within 10 minutes, and the guy only charged us for the parts, no labor!!! He and the cop that told us to go to New Orleans to get smashed and laid on our way home, were the coolest people I met in that state. The cop was about 50+ years old, by the way.
Is your insurance going to help in some way, or are you pretty much fucked? Sorry to hear about that Raggz. That really sucks. But atleast you got rid of Eddie!!!
