Im guessing the Mercedes owner is at fault, usually whenever someone hits someone from behind, its the person behind thats ****ed over.... kinda opposite from real life being "behind"....

I hope you got his personal and insurance contact info. If so, let them take it up. And since it was a Mercedes, didn't you say something about neck pain and muscle spasms in your back after being hit???

i know huh!!

oh and btw so you know. just because there arent any visible dents or cracks doesnt mean internal damage doesnt exist. Have that baby examined by a pro by taking it off and looking at the internals. my .02 and what i would do.

I think it was a S Class, His car wasnt even Scratched, I was about to merge into a Busy Street from an alley, but there was a bus comming so I stoped and then all I hear is THUG, The 2 girls in my car were horified, The one in the back became superman and flew for a couple seconds

The dude said he was coming out of an alley onto a busy street. That sounds like he would need to yield the right of way. Just because someone drives a Benz doesn't mean they're bad or they shouldn't be concerned about the damage to their own car. You want Donny Brooks why would you be held back by girls?

this is not always true. just make sure u got the police there and say u were totally stopped and the guy ran right into u. and bring it to an autobody shop to take a look at the insides.

did you contact the police after this happened?????????????????? So what your trying to say is that you started to look like you were going to move out into traffic, but then didn't go, and he rear ended you? If so technically it's his fault.............

It's the driver's responsibility to stay a safe distance from the person in front of you, anticipating everything. It's called defensive driving. It's the Mercedes driver's fault.

My 2 cents

i think you should make him pay for damages to your car.. and unless you really have neck or back pain caused by the accident, you shouldn't try sue, hey you never know you might buy a benz or a bimmer one day and you wouldn't want someone to take legal action against you in a similar situation if it was legit,

To be exact it was at an end of the alley, It was only room for one car, I stoped, and then Thug smack from the back, There were no scrathes on his car at all, The paint by the bottom of my liscence plate is cracking a little, and theres a big **** scratch, the guy didnt even have a front plate, The Mercedes Thing that goes where his front plate is made a indent on my Liscene plate

Tell the judge you want money for pain and suffering because you were taking those girls home for a three-way and this jacko hitting you took them out of the mood. And on top of that you have neck pain and muscle spasms in your back.

The car has nothing to do with the driver. It doesn't matter if he drives a S class or a DX civic. Doesn't it annoy people that cars like BMW and mercedes are so special? I go pick up some people in a friends POS benz and the girl is like "oh my friend came in his benz to pick me up". Whats up with that? I actualy prefer the g35 over the 330si or the clk. I think this raciscm has to stop!
