I was driving home from a party tonight and I was trying to turn right. As I was turning right I was rear ended buy a jeep. There was no damage to the car of the guy who hit me but my back fender was damaged and part of my trunk was bent in. The damage wasn't bad to either car so I decided not to report it to the police or insurance. But here's the thing It would have been his fault because any time you rear end somebody it is automatically your fault. Also the weather was bad and he tried to say he slipped.
Here's the kicker though this guy was Drunk. I could tell right away and I knew he would have gone to jail if he was drunk and got in a car accident. The reason I didn't call the police to file a report and get insurance involved is I didn't want to go to court and deal with all of that B.S. and I didn't want my insurance to skyrocket. But now I'm getting kind of mad and I think I should have reported it.
What would you have done in this situation? Would you have reported the accident and had to deal with what would come after that?
