Boy do I hear you guys, I had a 14 year illegal drive a dump truck into the rear end of a customer's car while on a test drive. Of course I have shop owner's insurance but the customer was not covered and it is their responsibility, not mine, to insure their vehicle. Turns out that it is a whole liability issue, if I did something liable then I would be covered, since I did nothing other than sit at the limit line of the intersection waiting for the light to turn green while the 14 year old illegal ran into and almost over me, I am not liable and the responsibility lies first with the person who hit me, good luck there, and secondly with the customer who did not carry uninsured motorist coverage, nice huh? I hammered my insurance company long and hard enough that they finally gave in, stepped up, and covered the ungrateful piece of crap that the customer turned out to be. In the end it cost me a customer, the $1500.00 dollar ticket that the car was, the additional $700.00 worth of repairs that the had just authorized before I took it out for the test drive/crash, a $500.00 deductable, oh, and my insurance rates went up about $1200.00 for the year and will stay up, period. So what do you think, am I pro illegal? Yeah friggin right!?!?? You can keep 'em.
Oh, if all of that crap is not bad enough, the cop basically tells me that nothing is going to happen, they are not even concerned with his illegal status in the country and that he has been barred from getting a license until he is 18!!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm getting red in the face all over again just rehashing this B.S.
