Sweet!
I'll just find any car that's parked illegally and start ramming it on purpose... I won't be at fault, right?  | Lol, that's what I first thought. Buy a beater and go cruisin' for illegally parked cars.
Anyways, update:

and I guess your right, I am wrong about the events in my own life. If you think ICBC wont fuck you over when they get a chance open your eyes and wake up from your fancy little dream world. give them the chance they will take it for one simple reason: It saves them MONEY!

Your choice of words towards a company is unfair to them  | |

All bullshit aside.. the Demystifier stuff on ICBC's website is pretty good reading. Too bad it's not in Chinese..

My sister was driving through an apartment parking lot once, bimbo in another car backed out of a spot and right into the side of sis's car. Bimbo was deemed 100% at fault for backing out when it wasn't safe to do so.
Kicker was, sis was driving our grandfather's '67 LeSabre... bimbo was driving a Civic. Back end of the Civic was demolished... front fender of the Buick barely had a scratch

doesn't matter where you're parked - If you're not moving it's not your fault.
If you go through ICBC they shouldn't find you at fault.

Just to give u guys a heads up that there is NO way 2 pay a claim back that has bodily injuries. Basically u cant pay off the claim. Ur stuck with ur discount going up.
and if ur gf complains about pain. i would report it. but think about how many cases adjusters go through a day, they know that at worst ur gf would prob need painkillers and a day or 2 of rest. If u start pullin bullshit, ICBC will come back at you for lying.
just my 2cents

But the problem is most injury claims take more than 1 year to settle. You will most likely have to renew your insurance before you can pay back the claim. Once you lose the discount you cannot go back. That's why in 99.9% of the cases injury claim is not paid back by the party that's at fault.

What u said is only true for damages 2 the vehicles with no injury to a person during the claim.
yes most injury claims take anywhere form 1month - 2.5yrs to settle. BUT the person at fault for the accident has already been charged with it. The discount will be deducted from that person on their next renewal without a chance of pay back.

All in all go with what your adjuster/ICBC says.

Bodily injury (BI) is considered an KOL code 21. I would say about 99.9% of claims that have bodily injury, aren't not payable. The remaining 0.1% can be payable. There are claims that are paid back even with BI.
As for the crs discount: If it has never affect any previous polices in the past, and assuming no bodily injury, the customer can always pay the claim back to keep their discount.

so il give a lil update..
100 % other guys fault. since its a low velocity accident, icbc said they wont pay out any money, other than to reimburse for medical treatment.
In my wifes case her neck really did hurt, and the doctor told her to take 1-2 weeks off work. Still hurts. So we got a lawyer.
And this really wasnt a little bump. the lady reversed pretty hard and cracked the front of my car. it was a clai in an suv for those wondering.
just keep in mind it doesnt take much, even a little jerk can cause neck and shoulder pain. when dealing with icbc remember the claim adjuster will act nice, but are out to screw you out of any money. so my advice, if you dont feel 100%, dont accept NO for an answer.

quick question
low velocity accident = icbc no pay?
or is it because the cost to fix your bumper is lower than the person's deductible?

If that's the case, they will only pay to fix the vehicle and any medical expenses incurred. Only problem is, they only take the vehicle into consideration, not anyone possibly hurt. Posted via RS Mobile | |

To expand a little more it was in traffic where two lanes merge into one from nordel onto the Alex Fraser. Guy in the truck was trying to not let me go on my turn to go, he started driving into my lane so I got out of his way. I was clear out of his way fully in the lane when he rammed me on purpose. I pulled over to exchange information and he left the scene of the accident. 50/50 somehow??

It may be the case 99% of the time, but there are exceptions... like if someone swings unexpectedly into your lane and you hit him.
Case in point: I was heading down Kingsway westbound, coming up to Victoria. I was in the left lane coming up to a stale red, no cars between me and the stop line, and five or six cars lined up in the middle lane. I was slowing down, but not too much because I knew the light was about to change, and I had a good six or seven car lengths before the intersection.
Well, idiotstick in a Jetta at the back of the line in the middle lane decided to change lanes right in front of me, only he did it really quick and got straightened out the instant before I smacked into his rear end despite slamming on my brakes...
ICBC determined it was 100% my fault, according to the adjuster, because I'd hit his rear bumper square-on. He told me if I'd hit the end or corner of the Jetta's bumper, it would have shown that he cut me off and was still on an angle, but because I hit it straight-on, that indicated I should have had enough time to brake and avoid him.

I'm assuming that your car was at an angle so when the other person hit you only 1 side was damaged?
