A friend with abilities to do background checks looked up the driver. At least 4 citations for speeding and DUI going back to 1991, including a license revoke in 2008 for a bit. Really wish they had done a breathalyzer.
Now I have to answer every stupid unlisted call I get in case it's the company USAA uses for subrogation to get my deductible back.
The hospital might have in doing standard lab draws.

I think they would have to get his permission as he may have the right to not let them do that. I am sure this varies state to state.

Sunday I rented an electric jackhammer and turned this.

Into this after 2 hours and finally.

Into this 4 hours later. I'm getting too old for this E36 M3. I got to meet multiple neighbors while I worked, asking about it and the driver.
Now I just need to haul everything away. Either rent a truck and do it myself (maybe with friends) or find a service. I don't seem to have any young friends with a truck looking to make a quick $100.
In reply to Jerry :
Add all of those expenses to the claim.
Gonna suck out there moving rocks around sweating like a horse when that reckless twit blows by in his new Civic. =~(
In reply to Jerry :
The guy had to do this AFTER Evan got his patio filled in...

Saturday morning, and that's about it except for maybe something decorative around the number plate that survived.
Roller-coaster weather and open hours for the local dump, I called the first Google listing for debris removal. They came out that morning, gave me an estimate. When he realized that I knew how much the dump charged and what a rental truck cost, he dropped the price a bit.
He started at $450. When I said I figured myself I'd be in about $150-200 he dropped it from "half-load" to "one-third load" and $350. For the convenience of being DONE I said do it. 15 minutes later they were done and we talked about Star Wars for a couple minutes.
Google says subrogation takes an average of 6 months, so we'll see how long till I have my $1k deductible.
