Default I got backed into :(

We were sitting in a parking lot waiting to turn on to the main road when all of a sudden an F-150 starts backing up... My girlfriend started yelling (who most of you know) and reached for the horn and hit it while I was trying to go in reverse. The horn didn't do anything and I couldn't back up because there was oncoming traffic. Although right when I started to back up his truck then crushed my fender holding me in place. I was at an angle because I had just turned into the lane. We were sitting there for a good 30 seconds to a minute before he backed up. I exchanged info and all and I'm going to call insurance tomorrow and see what all has to be done.

Here are the pictures I took. I just decided to upload all the ones I took... I'll be completely covered, rental car and all. I'm bringing it in on the 30th.

Ouch!

Anyway, his insurance should pay for every dime for repair. Might cost quite a bit (maybe around 1200?). No clue ...

good luck!
