i came home from school before, and they had my street informally blocked off to clear all the trees. so i pull up, and the one worker walks over and says:  
“the streets closed, turn around!”  
me: “well, i live in that gray house right there”  
him: “will, i gues you’re not going home anytime soon, we’re gonna be a while”  
me: “ok”

i roll up the window, take the Blazer around and partiall though the huge pile of tree stuff in the middle of the road, over a curb, over my neighbors lawn (which National Grid ripped the shit out if with thier truck to begin with), over my front lawn, and into my driveway. i got out, walked up my front steps, and looked back and saw the guy just glaring at me, so i flipped him off and walked inside. i have to leave to go back to school in about 20 minutes, and they’re still there, so i plan on leaving the same way 😃

yes you usually can, i did it with a DOT truck and they just cut me a check for my deductable (if u have one) if u dont have one its tougher cuz your insurance should eat it without any charge to you, but u can just lie to them and tell them u have 100 bux glass or even no glass coverage and see what happens

give the info to your insurance company they will most likely go after that company for you. if you have glass coverage you won’t pay a dime.

The guy in the blue Grand Marquis was being such a princess about that blockade. I managed to go down a side street and get between them and he wouldn’t let me exit the blockade. ☹ I took his picture after he was done telling me no and he was smiling but I forgot to save it.

This is true, and like Rob said just give the info to your insurance company and they’ll give you a claim number to give to the glass repair shop you go to. In any case, the glass ins. part of your policy (or at least mine) doesn’t have a deductable like colision, theft, etc.

Can’t just let them do their job for a little while? That’s a pretty messed up story.
