240Z-Fan Posted January 5, 2008 Share #13 Posted January 5, 2008 Darbji, So sorry to hear about the accident, I really hope you feel better soon. As E and Jimmy already said, don't sign anything just yet. Some 20 years ago I was in a car accident caused by another person. I was hurt a little so I went to the hospital to get checked out, just in case. Then, I fought hard to get them to pay up on my car. When we finally agreed on an amount, the adjuster offered to bring the check to my work. In a moment of stupidity, and needing the money to buy another car, I ended up getting the settlement check and signing for a $500 limit on medical. Later I received some additional hospital bills that the $500 limit just covered. It was then I realized I had made a big mistake as any further medical problems could far exceed any money I had. Settle on the car (per the others already excellent advice), don't settle on the medical. If you can, get an attorney. Otherwise see us here on the board. I for one will help with what I can. Most importantly, get well soon. We love you.

Go240Zags Posted January 5, 2008 Share #15 Posted January 5, 2008 I hope you're okay -- you can replace a car, even a Z, but we can't replace you. Listen to all the good advice that's been offered here and get well soon.

WingZr0 Posted January 7, 2008 Share #20 Posted January 7, 2008 O course hope you get well soon and take it easy. For the pain usually a nice good Whalers Vanille Rum works, or either Coconut flavored http://www.whalersrum.com/index-flash.html Be sure to have someone yak off that Cherry Bomb muffler and other racer parts too before you send the neon to the crusher. ~Z~ Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/26662-ive-been-in-an-accident/?page=2#findComment-233126 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darbji280z Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share #24 Posted January 8, 2008 Thanks everyone for your concern. And yes, it was Nitro, my baby. She's been toatled and I will buy her back and slowly repair. As for me, I am in a metric ton of pain and the Soma they gave me hasn't done anything at all. I have a bunch of phyisical therapy and doctor's visits in my future. They offered me $3500 if they take her and $3000 if I keep her (and I most certianly will) The estimate came to almost $6000. They offered me a mere $400 for my "pain and suffering" I guess they don't realize that I do not sleep any more due to the tremendous pain I'm in. Oh well. I don't think it would have hurt any more if it were the Z. I love them like they were my children. All of them. And now I feel dead inside. Everyone tells me that she's just a car... but it still hurts like I've lost a loved one. I suppose time will heal my sorrow and the good thing is that I still have my life.Please remind me that I still have my Kharma.
