So, last Thursday I was leaving the Forum Shops after working at Escada. The weather here in Vegas has been a little weird this summer and it was raining a bit when I finished work. I was driving on Frank Sinatra heading towards Russell, when my car started to swerve then it started spinning towards the rock wall on my right. The car smashed against the wall, damaging my car's left side.
I was in total shock and I quickly called my roommate, Ali'i to come and pick me up. After hanging up the phone with Ali'i, I quickly called my father all frantic. Ali'i arrived and called AAA to have a tow truck come and get my car, but it was gonna be a 3 hour wait, so I called the body shop that I was going to take my car to, send a tow truck to get the car since the body shop was to close in 2 hours.
I filed my claim on Friday when I found out that the damages came to a total of $4400. Luckily, I do have insurance and I got a $500 deductible. Vegas sucks when it comes to public transportation so I had to rent a car. I haven't heard anything from the insurance company since I filed my claim and I'm gettig worried because I can't afford to rent the car any longer. I'm hoping I can get through all this and just get my car back.
I'm trying my best to look at the positive side of this. Things could have been worse. I could have spun and hit another car or I could have gotten injured and sent to the hospital. Yes, this was my first accident and I'm praying that it will be my last one.
