Yes. Yes, because you caused the front bumper to mess up by running into the back one, therefore, you are responsible.
One effective way to protect your wall from damage caused by a trash can is to install a wall guard or bumper to create a buffer between the trash can and the wall. Additionally, you can place a rubber mat or padding behind the trash can to absorb any impact and prevent scratches or dents on the wall. Regularly inspect and maintain the area to ensure that the trash can is not causing any damage to the wall.
The car that hit you from behind is at fault.
A 1996 what? 1996 TOYOTA CAMRY- SOMEONE BACKED UP INTO ME & HIT DRIVER SIDE BUMPER & SIDE PANEL UP TO FRONT TIRE
depends on the damage you caused and the intent...all policys (far as i know) have an exclusion for 'an intentional act' that is different than you causing the damage, you cause the damage when you rearend someone but that is covered...see? what is the damage and how did you cause it?
no you have to replace the bumper
Tell them to see you in court; you don't owe them a THIN RED DIME.
No, you cannot sue for anything that has caused harm or damage to you. In order to sue someone, there must be a legal basis for the claim, such as negligence or intentional wrongdoing.
NO, liability covers damage you do to someone else's property. Comprehensive insurance covers damage to your vehicle by someone else. If you have no comprehensive, then you will need to look to their insurance for recovery of damages.
I would say yes. It doesnt matter how much damage was done to the cars. It is still considered an accident. Im sure it would get thrown out by a judge.
You better believe it! She hit you. What caused her to hit you is her problem, not yours. She was obviously too close to you.
"Make restitution" means to pay someone for the damage or other cost that you caused.
Unfortunately, unless you have a police officer on scene on either the crash she caused, or the collision involving you, it's be near impossible to prove in court. Fortunately, most insurance companies have a low deductible but if you didn't want to involve the insurance company, I would have a conversation with her and pay for a percentage of the bumper, depending on how much damage you caused. You could get a mechanic involved and have him survey the damage that was done to your car and see if that had the kinetic power to cause the damage it had done to it. For example, if you have just a scratch and her bumper is up against her front frame, it's obvious the damage was pre-collision with you, but that requires her cooperation too. Good luck!
