Alright this happened to one of my friends this past weekend... Talk about interesting...
Saturday night my friend Paul was at work, one of his co-workers needed to borrow a car because his was in the shop for some reason, the reason at that point was unknown, but whatever. My friend Paul, whos mom is a lawyer decided, as a joke to get a statement from the kid (aka Rob) saying that if Rob were to damage Paul's Civic that he was responsible for the cost to repair the vehicle. Keep this in mind, this was done as a joke. Rob signs the paper, along with Paul and two other witneses, and this is all caught on camera from the security cameras where they both work. Rob leaves the parking lot with Paul's Civic, which has no body damage, as is seen in all of the footage, etc...
Rob returns with the Civic, walks in, after parking the Civic in a different parking lot and says "ummm Paul, I got into an accident." Paul of course thinks he's joking and says something to the fact of yeah right... Rob then keeps going talking about how serious he is and blah blah blah... So they proceed to go outside and look at Paul's Civic...
Here is the story Rob told that happened....
Rob was driving down the road somewhere in the hood, he accidently hit an Astro van, then an Accord rearended him... Both cars ran, the Astro supposedly chased the Accord thinking that was the car that hit it... Oh and neither car had license plates... That story don't work for me... But you judge for yourself... I found it weird that all the body damage is on one side of the car... I remember from Fox's (loud91rs) neon that when you hit something head on... it F*CKS up the front of the car... Then when something hits you head on it does likewise to the other car and yours... On that car all the body damage is on the passengers side...
Monday Paul goes for Estimates...
Estimate #1: Abra Auto Body: $11,375
Estimate #2 Ernie von Schledorn Body Shop: $11,574
No other shops would even look at the car... Honestly the EVS body shop wouldn't of either if I weren't an EVS empolyee...
The Car: 1996 Honda Civic DX Coupe
Rob's grandma said she would cover the cost, but of course Grandma did her homework so we'll see what happens...
