Default Great, got rear ended this evening

It was a real dumb one... usually I check my rear view mirror before stopping, but never before accelerating. Red light turned green, car of blue hairs in front of me didn't move for a good 15 seconds, I didn't move, but the car behind me moved and smacked me. Pretty weak hit, but still enough to put a dime-size paint scratch on the back bumper. Cop came, but from the wrong jurisdiction. Apparently the parking lot we stopped in wasn't in the same one as the spot of the accident (county road). I didn't file a police report yet. I doubt it's necessary as I have all of her information and she has agreed to pay to repair the damages of a touch-up. Still though, nothing I'd like to have to worry about, but thankfully it's something that you can't even see without a TT-owner's eye.

Default yeah i got rear ended by a durrango when i stopped for a red light... chick on a cellphone... sigh.

it wasnt anything major, but it was 5k in damages. She somehow managed to scratch 3 panels, so they all got repainted... plus the rear bumper / cover are expensive. Broke my flexpipe somehow... (think it was already going and she finished it)

I did get a blacktraxx 180 DP out of the deal though.
