I need some advice /r9k/

I was sitting at a roundabout, stationary, I had my handbrake on and everything, and someone crashed into the back of my car, the damage can be seen in pic related, my dad is a mechanic and said it needs an almost entirely new back

Now, furthermore, my shoulder hurts like HELL, I can't lift it, I can't open doors, I've taken painkillers for it but it still hurts like hell, my left one is pretty bad as well but my right is seriously painful, I'm going to the doctors to get it checked out on Monday, do I have some kind of claim or something? What should I do?

You're gonna die nigga

This happened on February 8 and it took you this long to deal with it? Haha, little burger humor for you there. But seriously, did you call the police and/or file a claim with your insurance? Because if you're injured they should be responsible
>>
>>38803307
Did you not get their insurance? If you did they should be forced to cover the car and your injury, if not you can try your insurance.
>>
>>38803307
Why the fuck were you sitting in a roundabout, stopped, with your handbrake on of all things? are you a complete fucking retard?
>>
>>38803331
You need to call the police about this? How come? I mean I'm definitely going to phone the insurance tomorrow but why should I involve the police?

>>38803354
Yeah I got all her information and I'll tell her when I've got the damage fully assessed, my insurance isn't getting involved because she's 100% liable
>>
>>38803385
Because there were cars coming from the right maybe? The rules might not apply to you, but I'm a mere mortal, so I can't just drive out on to the road
>>
>>38803460
>waited for fucking six months
>"You need to call the police about this?"
>"My insurance isn't getting involved because she's 100% liable"

You're so FUCKING stupid. Why the fuck are you on the road and you don't even know how to deal with a fucking collision you dumb ass nigger?

How is it possible to be this much of a vagina?
>>
>>38803512
Well, she is liable because she crashed into me, so there's that, furthermore, the accident happened about half an hour ago, UK dates mate

>>38803514
Funny how when you arm gets rammed into a steering wheel it hurts

>obvious bait thread

Called me a missed oportunistist all you want, but i dont buy into this whole american sue and claim up melarkey for "personal injuries" caused by an accident.
I mean it was an accident and accidents happen, claim on the insurance for damages to your car but by no means sue the other person for a minor injury such as "whiplash" or " emotional distress" caused by the acident as I feel you are trying to extract blood from a stone and are essentialy...

>wasting time for other more important cases such as deaths caused by drink drivers and uninsured drivers.
>being a wuss for something in times by would have simply been brushed off.
>contributing to the pussyfication of the west.
>buying into the materialistic nararive that "more money will solve all our problems" that is killing our socitey.
>taking money from the insurance compainies pot that will essentialy reduce the pay out for famlies who have lost family members due to drink driving.

But by all means if you are out of work due to the injuries and are struggling to pay bills and feed yourself then claim up if you feel the need to.
However I would never accept a handot I would rather lower my standard of living to acomadate my setback and be proud of being self sufficent.

most of us never leave the house, carekt bro - /o/ are far more capable of answering your questions

that being said, yeah; if you're dealing with intense pain you need checked out by a doc and deep tissue damage can take 4-6 weeks to heal - or longer depending on how many muscle groups were affected

if you lose time in work you can make a civil claim against loss of earnings, and if you need specialist after-care or physio

btw you 'will' need physio if you've rekt a bunch of muscles across your shoulders, otherwise they will heal back a bit wonky and inhibit your mobility... but in the meantime instead of waiting for an appointment on monday, hit up your local A&E* and get them to xray your back

at the least you'll have medical records showing intense problems in the case where you have to make a civil claim

~

*i'm assuming you're in the UK cos of the yellow number plate - and calling it an ER is some yankee-doodle burgerclap nonsense

>>38803857
Wow mate you're retarded as fuck.

Have you ever been in a car accident before? I hope you get in one.
>>
>>38803477
This makes no sense at all, you never stay still in a round about, people merging on have to yield to you.
>>
>>38803460
Don't phone the police, they would only need to be involved if the other driver did a runner and didn't provide their details.
>>
>>38804068
No, I was waiting to go on to the roundabout, should have been clearer sorry
>>
>>38803857
We'll just for your peace of mind anon, I deliver beer to pubs, I can't roll barrels around if this shoulder doesn't clear up by tomorrow morning so I will be missing work
>>
>>38803307
did you really not call the police when it happened? If so you're fucked as it's generally the law that police must be called in some municipalities or if the damages exceed a certain amount

Hey OP, I got in an accident last year. Here is my advice

If you are in that much pain, you should go to the emergency room right away and at least they can X-ray you to make sure nothing is fractured, or maybe even broken. For all you know you could be doing more damage to yourself by not going right now. You will also want to talk to them or your doctor about getting an MRI, which is extremely important, because it will let them know exactly whats wrong. You also might get sympathy pain pills.

You should definitely inform your own insurance what happened, and that you need to go to the hospital. This way they should pay for everything, they can get reimbursed from the insurance of the lady who hit you, so its not your concern, getting to a doctor ASAP is. Same thing for the collision damage to your vehicle, although you would likely have to front the deductible in your policy, which you would get back when everything is resolved.

Another thing is you want as much advice as you can get, which your insurance can give you. If you have an relatively serious injury, such as a herniated disk, or torn shoulder, whatever, that is when you would want to consider getting a lawyer, because they will be able to negotiate the most money for you when you settle with the woman's insurance. This wont have any major impact on her life, the insurance will cover it for her, and it doesnt seem like you could go after "punitive reparations" or whatever its called, I forget. Either way though, you either want your insurance or a lawyer and her insurance to do most of the communication, its not your job, and they are probably better at it anyway.

You got her insurance information, and it's too late to call the cops. I'd personally only call them at the time of the accident if something sketchy happened, or it was really serious, for future reference. Hope you feel better and things work out

Yep ive been in multiple car accidents, both were the other drivers fault i claimed on the insurance but never sued due to whip lash, and even had a laccerstion on my head from where i head butted the window and passed out, and was out of work for a week but simply took it like a man and kept calm and carried on.

Ive also had 2 accidents whislt at work
>twisted my ankle slipping over on watered down raw sewage that hadn't been moped up after being jet washed off machinery.
Was out of work for a week.
>burned my arm whislt soldering in a confined loft
out of work for 3 weeks

So dont tell me im retarded or cant talk from experince for not knowing about injuries, its frankly a personal choice and i take pride in my self sufficentcy and adherance to a stubbon code of honour.
