Wednesday I had another out of town Doctors appointment
So my lady drove me to it in my Escape
9:30 appointment and got into the room early .... by just after 10 am
Then the wait for the MRI
So a little after 2 PM we were headed home and non of the trucks on I 75 wanted to run us over that day
Got onto the exit ramp and had to wait for a traffic light
When the light turned green 2 semi's went around a Excursion that was just sitting at the light
We pulled up to it and were about to go around it when it's back up lights came on and it backed up into my Escape
It hit us at 10 MPH or so , but it's ball hitch found my grill ... now there is a small hole in the raidator
Hood is kinked and the bumper cover is broken
But we were unhurt , just a bit mad
She gets out to talk to the guy and comes back and calls 911 as he is slumped over out cold
Cops and EMS show up in a few min and they get him out and start working on him
We get ask 5 or 6 times at least if we are OK as we wait
The cops tell us he was almost dead , most likely a Meth overdose
Later we see them looking a box with folded up 1 dollar bills in it
Each 1 dollar bill had Meth folded up in it
Collage Id on him , 2 drivers license in the box .... different names on all 3 , but his picture and the one cops said they all looked to be fake
Called the insurance company and give them the info I had
Friday I get a call from my insurance agent and get told the Excursion was stolen from out of state over 6 months ago
The plates were stolen off of a pickup truck 200 miles away
So as far as he new , there was no insurance on the Excursion
So he told me it was most likely best to start the claim as a uninsured driver ....so I am out $500 deductable for now
And they would go after the driver for all damages to my Escape , rental till it is fixed , the $500 deductable and anything else costs they would have
One good ( SMALL ) thing , there was a small scratch on the hood
So I will not have to get the scratch painted LOL
Oh well
On the bright side we were not hurt and got to see how some of our tax dollars are spent
