I like you Dad, but that's a bogus stat. 80% of immigrants? Do you have any idea how many "immigrants" live in California? Perhaps you meant illegal immigrants...

Regardless, even illegal immigrants come from many countries other than Mexico, so to call the drivers in this instance "Mexicans" as a stereotypical reaction isn't right, unless of course they were Mexican.

Off my soapbox!

I never singled out any race. But.. according to my wife who works at the local police department, gives the driving status's of the subjects stopped to the officers and processes the citations the officers write, my statement includes all races, illegal and not. Not only do they not have licenses but they also do not have car insurance and the majority of the time the car is behind in registration.

Can an illegal immigrant without a valid DL/insurance sue me if an accident was completely my fault?

Sure can!

I think your insurance gonna have to pay. I assume you have full coverage. and this is clearly not your fault so your rate should not go up either. When I had my truck, some guy carrying junk fell off and hit my truck causing $8k damage and never stopped. I filed police report and my insurance paid for it all without increasing my rate.

As I was saying. Not to be racist but literally they are illegal immigrants without a valid license. I hate how they are driving around because they're so stupid and irresponsible. I didn't spend 34K on my car to be backed into by two illegal immigrants. Who can't cover my repair bill. It has nothing to be racist or not.

Allstate is the only insurance company that I am aware of that doesn't penalize customer for accidents deemed not their fault.

dszombiex · 11-22-2009, 10:25 PM

Wow, another one so soon! Its terrible, I'm sorry for your car.

This is a situation that all decent Southern Californians have to deal with. So many uninsured motorists out here. Tons of people taking off after hittin someone too.

personally after reading stories about hit and runs I decided not to turn my car off because it took them awhile to hesitate before getting out of their car, I still had my seat belt and was engaged in 1st gear ready to chase him down if he decided to run.

If they work for a company, ask the company if they want to pay to fix it. If it's just the bumper you are looking at about $1000 to fix. What will be annoying is that the paint will never match again. (Not that the plastic matches well today, but nothing beats factory paint.)

Are you thinking aftermarket bumper?

Sorry to hear and see about the Idiot that ran into you! Hope everything gets fixed, and they make her as good as New.
