Oldest child, nearly 18, was leaving school yesterday in our 2004 Honda Element. She was pulling out of the exit and people were stopped to the left to pick up children at the curb, instead of waiting in the pickup line and someone pulled out and they collided. She is bumped and bruised from the airbag deployment, but it appears the vehicle is not going to be fixed by insurance (only the required liability on an older paid for vehicle). The damage, structurally, is minimal and the vehicle is drivable, but since the airbags deployed, the cost to fix may be more than the value of the vehicle and it would be hard to drive with the airbags everywhere...

Grrr....
I am glad that she is ok.

I hope you get some aid from a insurance company.

as they were stopped illegally before hitting our vehicle.

IF they were positioned illegally, and that positioned caused the accident, they are responsible. Have your kid go to a Chiropractor with a neck pain ( hey, the bags deployed, right?) then go to an ambulance chaser. By this time next year college is paid for, as is the house, the next car, and the grand-kids college [;)]

Police report puts us to blame. So, next is to see what it would take to get the vehicle on the road or sell it as is. Evidently there is a big market around here for these vehicles and even the salvage value is high. We have a couple of options still.

Waiting on body shop estimates.

Damned doughnut munchers. How can you be to blame in an accident with an illegally parked car?!? [:@][&:][:@]

Technically, they were in the lane of travel but had just left an illegal spot. So, we were at fault as we were coming out of a legal pick up area and collided on public property.

Yeah, it sucks, and no, we are not going the ambulance chaser route...
