glad she is alright

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Unfortunately, most drivers of "luxury vehicles" like Mercedes, Lexus, and BMW's tend to have the "I'm better than you" attitude.
I would've gone to the hospital (on his insurance) and see what his policy has for injury stipulation.
I'm also a firm believer that doing anything else while driving too much. How many accidents are caused by (but not reported as) "driver distraction"? Distraction can be cell phone use, eating, drinking, reading, texting, or putting on makeup. It infuriates me when these idoits CAUSE and accident, and blame it on the person(s) they hit saying "They should have seen me coming."
I say nail this guy for all you can LEGALLY and teach him a lesson where it will hurt him most.....in his pocket!

Bummer RF9. Glad your wife is ok, she really took a hard hit.
She should get checked out by a doctor though, as whiplash problems could show up later, and you may want it documented in case there are problems down the road.
Not ripping anybody off, just protecting yourself aganinst possible future med expenses.
