Triple A Vehicle Insurance On August 1, 2016 my vehicle was rear-ended while sitting still at a red light at the intersection of SR144 and SR 37, while I awaited to make a left-hand turn. Avon Indiana
On August 1, 2016 whle sitting at a red light waiting for the light to change in order to make a left-hand turn, my vehicle was rear-ended by a vehicle driven by Mr. Lol Len Thang, who was traveling at 45 miles per hour according to the police report. My wife was shown Mr. Thang's insurance card which was from Farm Bureau, and had expired in March, Therfore, my vehicle was hit by an uninsured driver. Mr. Thank did not speak English. My vehicle polilcy with Triple A clearly states that if my vehicle is hit by an uninsured motorist, I will not be required to pay the $500.00 deductible, or any deductible amount. However, when I took my vehicle to Brothers Collision Repair in Martinsville, Indiana, I did pay the deductible. I feel this was unethical and possible illegal. I am currently trying to retrieve the $500.00. The Statute of Limitations requires that this be done before August of the current year. I feel they should also pay interest on this money that I ashould never have had to pay in the first palce. In addition to the $500.00, I have paid $1200.00 for car rental and additional insurance on the rental car.
