This story gets more interesting.  Now her parents call me and bitch me out, and claim I was running a red light.   :lol:  Then the dad informs me "I know where you live, you motherfucking cocksucker."  Now that's not funny.  Should I call police right now?  Please advise me ASAP, for obvious reasons.
How does he figure you ran a red light and got rear ended? :lol: Anyway, make sure your door is locked :ph34r:

This is how romances start.  At least according to Hollywood.

The over-the-top friction with the dad is another sign. Guller's been pulled into a rom-com.  :)

How old is this daughter?
Turns out she's 26.  She looked younger than that.  Kinda surprising she's still living with her parents and has her parents deal with her mess, but then again, they are Italian.

So she's of legal age?  Then why are you dealing with Dad?
His car, his policy, and she forwarded me to him.

I wrecked my dad's 1998 Toyota Camry with someone else's dad's 2001 Nissan Maxima in Knoxville.  But I've never owned a car.

They're from upstate New York, actually.    :P

Now the daughter called me and bitched me out that I went back on our agreement.  I did, but I did try to call her multiple times beforehand.  She claims she was at work and couldn't talk.  Maybe, too bad for her.  In her situation, I would've found a way. 

Anyway, I'm done talking with all of them, and I will inform the next one out of that retarded family that I already talked to police about the dad's threats, and they advised me to stop discussing matters with them.

I don't think that a family being fucking nuts is a jurisdictional issue.

Hell you didn't even flip the car.
I guess this this minor car accident did turn into a major trainwreck after all.  :lol:

Their advice was fucking terrible.  I was trying to be nice and blame it on jurisdiction.  Oh well.

Go on, elaborate.  Obviously I'm interested in a post-mortem, because this situation should have never gotten to this point.

I stand by my advice.  The worst case scenario DG winds up in exactly the same situation as if he would've reported anyways.

And FWIW, I think your advice has been sensible throughout the thread. :hug: It's not your fault the family (hopefully not The Family) has been anything but sensible.

Yeah, it doesn't always have to end like that. I once rear-ended a truck and cracked the plastic cover of his rear right lights. The Mercedes dealership was just 50m away from the site. We walked there, I bought him a new one and we both went our merry ways.
