    And Grumpy will claim that he was 6 foot tall before he got hit. So the Medical bills will be added........ Oh, and the mental abuse that you treated him with...... After all, you should of known his name was Grumpy.

    Yeah, he'll probably try and get the doc to say he was taller. He definitely wasn't bashful about threatening lawsuits. The whole ordeal sure drained me. Once it was all over I was beyond sleepy and had to call it a day,

    As of 2007 (sorry it's the latest I have) a rear end collision was considered to an instant $1 million check. Regardless of the actual damages.

    Most insurance companies felt safe with that number, as a starting point for settlement. If offered a lower number, they would immediately settle.

    This isn't good, no matter how you look at it.

    At least you couldn't rear end Sleepy then.... since you were beyond sleepy. and we know he wasn't bashful, after all, it has been established that he was grumpy....

    People can be so much over dramatic actors during accidents.. I've seen many.. NJ has many, probably most uninsured
