My jeep was hit when a BIG RIG tire broke free from its trailer heading south and came cross the center divider onto freeway heading north and hit me.

They won't reimburse you for a freaking tire smashing your front end! :shock: What did they say? Your Jeep wasn't protected enough becuase you cut your front bumper? :shock::cheesy: Glad to hear that it was only minor injuries. :thumb:

I can tell you truck insurance companies are hard to deal with. It could be a long battle, don't give up.
I had a guy back into us at a truckstop one night about 3 yrs ago and we're still fighting over it. The kicker is he has the same insurance company as us, go figure.

Well when he wins for their negligence they have to pay more. Sounds like youre gonna luck out in the end, hate to say.

Edit - meaning it sucks you had to be hit but youll probably be better off later
