VelociBacon posted:Just to play devil's advocate - would your insurance company have the ability (legally) to force you to disclose video to them under any circumstances? Just thinking of situations where you happen to be speeding or something at the same time someone merges into your car and the insurance company trying to pin stuff on you after seeing the camera when you bring your vehicle in for inspection after making the claim. No, they would not. They cannot force you to give a statement, either, unless they compel an examination under oath - which requires a court reporter. You can, however, volunteer it if you think that it helps your case. (edit: US) PainterofCrap fucked around with this message at 06:33 on Dec 28, 2013 |

Yeah, you can clearly see the the three downed dividers just before the freeway signage column, where the CR-V slipped through; the collision looks like it happered right at the column.

buttcrackmenace posted:hard to say who's at fault here Car going straight through the intersection (Corolla) has the right-of-way. Car turning left (Audi) will carry the bulk of the liabilty; hell, it stopped for the first car, there was no reason it couldn't have waited for the Corolla. After it passed, even on red, the Audi has the right to clear the intersection without interference, so the rush to turn was crappy judgement. The side impact to the Corolla going straight helps the Corolla. The left-front damage on the Audi is just another nail in the liability coffin. If I'm the insurer of the Audi, I would make a serious run at 15-20% comparative negligence with the adjuster handling the Corolla: it ran the red, and I'd claim I was already standing in the intersection...but I'd be prepared to go down in defeat. From a statutory point of view, the Corolla should get a ticket for running a red; but statutory charges have little real bearing on civil legal liability. (edit) woof, Audi actually impacted well past the center of the Corolla, at the rear wheel well. It's toast. PainterofCrap fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Jun 15, 2018 |

Mom first said no one was to her left, then later claimed the mom, with her three young kids in the car, was speeding. Fortunately the mom & kids were OK. Mom broke her back & pelvis and degloved her left knee. She’s fine now. Saved by curtain & side airbags.

Not only is hitting wildlife covered; it's covered under your comprehensive (if you have it). Hitting humans, however, is considered a collision claim.
