Hit the dog...

Girl said she swerved to miss a dog and ended up rolling the car about 100'. Result was the trashed car and a severely damaged front yard for me. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/mad.gif[/img]

Wish I had been there. Im sure that will go over real well with her insurance company.

They'll pay it though. I've seen a whole lot dumber. Hope she has a low deductible.

Re: Hit the dog...
They will pay it, but it will probably go up, whereas if she just hit the dog, it would not go up under comprehensive.

So many carriers have "accident forgiveness" now it's hard to tell if it will or not. I've filed more than I can count that the carrier just paid no questions no increases.
Now if she already has a high loss ratio, that's a different story.
Unfortunately for the small animals on the road, there's less destruction if you just don't swerve.

Re: Hit the dog...
I've heard that a collar-bone break is one of the most painful...I couldn't imagine breaking it in 2 places.

I hit a deer on Thanksgiving and I still don't have my truck back, but I do have a free rental car(even though its a dodge magnum). All that at no expense for me...
She should have hit it. It's hard to do, but it is usually best.

Beware the landmines in the yard.

Re: Hit the dog...
Not saying I condone hitting animals but if I had to choose between hitting one or having broken bones or worse, I'm choosing hitting the animal. Or at least not swerving.

I almost hit one Sunday night. It was just standing in the passing lane waiting to be hit. Deer vs. Trailblazer? No doubt who would win that fight. I had visions of blood, guts and broken glass the rest of the night.

The deer.

Re: Hit the dog...
The deer almost always wins, or at least causes enough damage that it wouldn't matter what maneuver you choose.

Re: Hit the dog...
Don't know that chick didn't go to jail, or end up w/ her truck stickin outta somebody's house like someone else at our place.
Was wondering how that went. Sounds like a good night man...
