Ok, so wed. night at like 10 after the S&R cruise night i was drivin around and this guy in a 350Z was drivin next to me. I was in the left lane an he was in the middle one. i could tell that he wanted to race cuz as soon as i sped up to pass him he sped up. So i put it in third n steped on it but since there was traffic in the middle lane i got hard on my brakes so i could change lanes. But as soon i hit the brakes he got behind me because he thought i was goin by the traffic in the middle, and when he did that he clipped my rear bumper and since i was prolly doin like 50 it spun me across 2 lanes of traffic and into some other guy’s door. Ok now my insurance company told me that its not my fault and that the guy w/ the Z his insurance should cover my car and the other car that i hit. But even though its not my fault is my insurance gonna go way up???

No, It shouldn’t. And don’t wreck that car before we get a race in! 😃

Sorry to hear that man…

I would say your insurance probably will go up a little bit, even though it wasn’t your fault

Most insurances care about how many accidents you have, and not too much “whose fault” it is.

they were pretty far ahead and i didnt want to full on race him i just wanted to show off. I only went from like 40- maybe 70 before i hit the brakes. he was obviously expecting me to fly by traffic at 80 or something. I got lucky though the damage wasnt to bad just a couple of cracks and scrapes no pics yet.

Your insurance might go up a little bit, but nothing too bad.

Frequencys effect insurance, and if you are totaling a car and getting one other frequency for small fender bender, and then a liability claim for something like hitting a deer, they might even drop you.
