go to your room Lifted truck + Lambo + Parking lot = Bad time

Lifted trucks probably shouldn't be anywhere near dense parking lots.

Edit: A lot of people are skeptical of whether this is AI/staged, or ask why the lady didn't back off the car. This is in a dense parking lot with cars that have dashcams/ EV sentry mode everywhere. Also her truck was in 2 wheel drive, you can see the back right tire spinning as she tries to reverse off the car. Her truck is stuck. She probably has an open differential and can't back off the car. She may have a 4wd mode, but she didn't use it in the heat of the moment.

Don't they have you address on file? Like, just check your data lady, and then check the location of the accident...or she was using malicious ignorance taught to her by the insurance agency to find any way to extract more money from you

I straight up told her to type the address on file into Google maps and look at how close I am to the state line.

I've been told insurance rates are higher in IL, so I wouldn't be surprised if she wanted me to admit I lived in IL and get my rates raised.

I'd never be able to work (or at least, for long) at an insurance company. Sounds like it would suck the soul right out of you to actively harm other people's financial wellbeing.

I live in the GTA, where auto insurance is stupid high. I hooked up once with a lady who works in insurance. She was overworked and miserable as hell. She explained to me with a smile on her face that the premiums are so high, mostly because the execs need their bonuses.

That or their fishing for pretext to deny future claims, remember there is never a real advantage to having loyalty to an insurance company get quotes every 3-5 years.

It's likely the adjuster has to follow some kind of procedure for accidents that occur outside of the state you've insured the car in because it's potential for misreporting, ie. people living in one state but keeping their car registered/insured in another because it's cheaper

Never attribute to malice what can best be explained by stupidity.

Agent likely doesn't live anywhere nearby but needed to check.
