I fully realize that this situation may be interesting only to me, but I must say it does get more complicated seemingly by the day. When I filed my claim with Geico (my insurance company) they told me they would contact her insurance company (State Farm) and they would likely be getting in touch with me to get my story. Geico also told me that if I didn't hear from State Farm in a day or so, to give them a call.
Which brings us to today.
There was a specific reason they weren't calling and it was because whatserface is no longer one of their policy holders. Simply put, this ain't their problem. I called them and they told me that at one point she did have a policy, but thanks to non-payments, it was terminated. Great.
So I called Geico and they pretty much told me the same thing. I only have liability coverage for Ol' Blue so there's really no claim I can make for anything whatsoever. Kind of a sack of downers because I think there really could be some necessary repairs in order to keep Blue going for the next few weeks, but in light of my original plan this doesn't change very much.
So now, my only course of action is to get an appraisal on what it would take to make the repairs and then send her that estimate. If it's not dealt with, then we sick the dogs on her, and by dogs I mean the law.
What makes it so weird is that it was she, not I, that called the police immediately and brought them into the equation. I would have happily settled this away from all insurance and/or authoritative agencies, but that's not what's happening now and so be it.
Either way, I'm going to get mine.
