OK, Who Was Wrong?

[Jimbo]

A driver, let's call her My Wife, pulls up to a stop sign at an intersection. She wants to go straight thru. She stops and cannot see traffic to her right because there's a building in the way so she inches forward. She says only a foot or so over the stop line. She sees a truck coming from that direction and stops. The truck has no stop sign and is making a left. He cuts his turn too close and the back of his truck crunches in my wife's front left fender and the headlight, bumper, basically everything in that vicinity. The truck driver says it's her fault since she was over the line. She says it's his fault because she was completely stopped and if he couldn't make the turn he shouldn't have ever tried. The cop issues no summonses because he wasn't there, no one was hurt, it's the truck driver's word against hers and why add insult to injury by citing them. So how do you work this out? It ain't going to be cheap fixing a 94 Pathfinder.
