Car Accident


Sooo apparently I was bored last week and had nothing to do, so I decided to rear end someone. That's seriously how I feel.

It was my first car accident and I was literally shaking and terrified as it happened. To make it worse my boss and co-worker were in the car! Great impression Katy! Raise for you!

It was minor though, in my insurance companies' eyes its $2,000 worth of minor damage. Eeeekk!! I'm just so glad I had insurance and only have to pay my deductible. I couldn't afford much more with a house a wedding these days.

And my insurance company has been awesome! I have progressive and they seriously have made this process a lot less stressful.

Timeline:
9:30am accident 
10:30 make claim online
11:15 call from progressive (go over accident, damage, and if I want to get it fixed. Then made an appointment to get a rental car and drop off my car at 4:15pm that same day)
4:00 get to progressive and go in
4:10 dropped off my car and driving away in my Nissan sentra rental

So easy an painless! That happened all Thursday. Got a call from them Monday with the estimate for damage and checking up if I am enjoying my rental.

How I company should act in my book! Even if I am the one that caused the accident they have never made me feel bad or stupid. All the things I was feeling.

Now we will have to think twice about switching to another auto provider after we close. But I am just counting the days until I get my car back! I miss it!

Happy Tuesday!
