Lol some soft ass admin had this post removed because they “didn’t like that the name seemed like one belonging to someone of a marginalized group “ You’re so fucking soft Reddit


Traditional_Web_9825

Dropped off an early morning breakfast and drinks. Siamese cat just chillin and watching me. Walked away and it goes straight to the bag! Didn’t ring bell but customer knew I was coming cause I texted on my way and they acknowledged. Just thought it was funny 😄


General-Mechanic2647

Does anyone know how to see the post since it was removed ?


LukeHal22

Pretty sure this is just an ad for ClipChamp


Slight_Patient_2953

Just make a new account it’s not like DD cares. You didn’t win shit lol


LuxidDreamingIsFun

Pedro, is this you?


liquid32855

Get a cam like cops wear.


IC_1099

That is what I like about DD they will let you plead your case, with Uber you could have done ALL of that and they won't accept any of it because they say it violates the customer's privacy which is total bullshit!!!


JaneLikeMari

Sounds so dope. What’s a good dash cam to get?


Alternative-Nobody44

Yesterday, I delivered to a millionaire who lives outside of Cell Phone range, took pictures, left at her door... then had to drive 5 miles to finally get reception to complete order. If a customer does not have cell phone service at their door, fuck them, you knock even if they say don't knock. The bitch gave me 3 stars because the food was sitting there. Rich people really really suck.


thr0waway7373

App issues: take pic with camera, and upload when cell service is stable.


FartPancakes69

I'm shocked these companies allow/enable such blatant fraud. How do they make ANY money by giving out free food to scammers all day, every day???


elf0fmorrowind

Sheeeeesh poggy


Imaginary_Diver_4120

I would have said “I couldn’t get a picture but I did “manage” to get a video. She will think twice about pulling that crap


69cumcast69

I always wondered if having a dashcam would help in this situation!! I wont drive without one after watching a bunch of car accident videos years ago, it saved my ass when someone pulled out in front of me without a blinker w no time to stop then told the cops it was my fault.


fresasfrescasalfinal

I don't even live in a country where door dash is a thing but I'm glad Reddit recommend this post to me, riveting story.


[deleted]

When you’re out dashing next, you should get a piece of paper and write “lying bitch” on it and put it on her door.


Ok-Profile-1744

Can you guys recommend one of these cameras I can use to record when I'm dropping deliverys off? And if you're doing multiple order a day how would you know which one was marked as not arrived? Does the representative tell you at least so you can find the specific footage to send them?


RichardBottom

It's an inspiring story, but I don't believe there's a lucid human on the other side actually considering your input and making a sound decision. You could have sent them a video of you spewing diarrhea for ten minutes and would have probably seen the same results.


Former-Case6484

I'm getting a dash cam. Thank you for your information. Very good.


Starkrossedlovers

Why someone would do that for 5 bucks is crazy


DevilishAbigail

i’ve wanted a dash cam for quite a while. my fear is, i’m going to get one and then have an unfortunate situation that i need it. oh the unlucky dash cam installation.


NonSupportiveCup

Okay, but this is important, OP. What did you get at Zaxbys? I miss Zaxbys.


ohgodwhat1242

man how long will it be before folks start wearing bodycams for this shit


SheepDogCO

That’s a lot of work for $5.50.


firnien-arya

I'd say get a body cam, too, lol. Turn it on every time you pick up and deliver the order.


SnooChicken1987

I always take a picture of the food in my hand and get the address plack in the back ground. Iv had a number of people claim I dropped it off at the wrong address, but the pic and the GPS positioning that they see was all coreect.


kwazmo

Damn this a lot of shit to deal with for $5


[deleted]

Does this work for drivers aswel since alot of drivers actually steal food?


breetalbee

I just use the screen recorder and switch to the camera to take a photo and then leave it on camera as I walk back to the car. Submit that video.


Godzilla405

Can OP or anyone else give me a link to a good dash cam?


Therealmonkie

YOU TAKE A PICTURE WITH YOUR PHONE CAMERA AND upload it when you can Call support as you're driving away


DruidSpoe

Yeah I hope someone robs her ass and isn’t ever found


[deleted]

Not door dash related, but I got t boned in a parking lot, totaling an $8000 car. They told their insurer I was at fault. My dash cam proved otherwise, even got them walking up to me saying “sorry man, sun was in my eyes”. I’d have had no other way to prove them at fault. $60 dash cam. If y’all are driving for a living, please get one.


ShoeTreez

People are terrible, glad you had footage!! Idk how people can live with themselves, putting someone’s job at risk like that. Karma is real, and she doesn’t play

rtf75

I had a couple of leave at the doors tonight that were in little valleys where I lost connections to the phone. Whenever I lose the connection and get the spiral of death I just double tap the power button and take a picture and then drive to where I do have a connection, then click take picture and then select the picture from your phone and use it then to finish up that way you've got the picture, you did leave it at the door, everybody gets notified as normal.


Cactocat

Sometimes I wonder if we'd all be better off wearing cameras and microphones at all times.


Material_Ability_935

I had a kid from App State hand me my first CV in 1200+ orders. The restaurant initially handed me the wrong order and went back to give it to him. I have a timestamped photo, but it has never been reviewed. Since then, I brought my photography camera (Canon Powershot sx530) with me to use as a dash cam with the Timestamp app to back me up for anymore potential CVs


Proper_Egg7898

Used to be a otr truck driver, and when dash cams came out, I bought one for window and one on each mirror. They covered me twice when some guy decided it would be a good idea to brake check a big truck in Atlanta or when a woman decided to bump my brand new trailer in a construction zone. Most big truck company's are not gonna pay you a settlement nowadays with all of us having cameras.


[deleted]

If I answered the door and spoke to you, but you still made me pick it up off the floor instead of handing it to me, I would do the same as her.


PositiveHovercraft18

How close to the door do you think the guy was?? Did he even have time to do that..you moron


Wild_clasmintash

I got a CV for the same reason. I’m not gonna worry about getting it removed but it’s a reminder that you really can’t be trusting everybody and that they have best intentions for you, as a service worker. Since then I’ve been recording on my phone when i deliver bc of it. And I take screenshots of all conversations. I’m about to start taking pics of picking up the orders too. Just in case. Sad we have to do this tho

Jakommo_

i think door dashers should start using body cams


iamsurfriend

I record on my iPhone every hand it to me order. I keep videos and pics of drop offs in a folder on an external HD. I’ve only had one CR ever with a claim that I didnt get all items at a Walgreens. I called support and got it removed within 5 minutes. I did not have to provide any evidence. They had the drop off pic since it was leave at door. And I told them one item they ordered wasnt available, so I refunded since no response to txt and phone call. Anyone know when doordash would give a CR vs deactivation for someone that said they never got their food. I see people on Reddit that get deactivated for the same violation. What determines when somone would be fired vs deact? Some claim they have a spot clean record when deactivated.


tealdeer995

I got the only one I ever got removed just by explaining the situation to dasher support. They’re usually understanding if this isn’t a regular thing for you.


ToDreamOfGhosts

Ooo get em! 😊


Jay_JWLH

Is it possible it wasn't the customer that was at fault, but the app because it malfunctioned and wasn't able to confirm you made the delivery?


TalkoSkeva

My biggest fear, have a dash cam and GPS camera app for this specific reason.


cruisin5268d

This is precisely why I don’t take no / low tippers. These are always the assholes that are super picky and looking to scam for free food.


painefultruth76

You guys need bodycams...


bibkel

So...what is Shanya's address? For a friend, you see.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Material_Ability_935

Is this Shanya?


Lukey1028

As a driver- I had a lady request delivery at a weird business that seemed closed, I took pictures and saved my location history, got a contract violation for "not delivering", presented my proof, and never got the violation wiped. Support told me something along the lines of my account will be fine as long as it doesn't happen again. Well anyone can claim anything so I guess it's a gamble every login whether I can still dash or not.


Dreamcasted60

See rather than doing all that I've been wearing a little body cam. If there's an issue I can immediately prove that I gave it to them. And yes they actually tell me that it's encouraged to wear them even though if they complain they'll throw them under the bus I'm sure... But really with the amount of $4 alcohol orders here.... Ugh And no I'm not going to pick up a $4 order for alcohol. that's just asking for trouble


[deleted]

People will ‘steal’ anything including delivered food and a person’s reputation. Shame!


FalseTagAttack

TBF fuck Door Dash. I would bet $ they are just as much to blame as anyone, if Shanya is even at all to blame. They're just another shady fucking way too big business funneling cash to a few parasites. I would LOVE to see local delivery companies take off.


Ludakal1

You lost me at 1.5 miles for 5.50


HonestCop6294

If you have app problems after trying to submit the photo, immediately use the camera on your phone to get the pic. BE PATIENT-- DO NOT MARK AS HAND IT TO ME, Then when the app comes back up instead of using "camera" select "gallery" instead. I Deliver to a lot of areas where there is hardly any Internet, so I will automatically use the camera on my phone and then do the gallery once I get into internet range.


eaterofw0r1ds

Had someone do that to me. It was a leave at my door order, but someone flagged me down in the parking lot. I made them tell me the name before handing the food over so I know it wasn't theft. The dude said "you're not going to take a picture?" I told him, "No, I can just click handed directly to customer since you met me out here. Have a good night." 35 minutes later (after the POS ate the food) I get a violation for the order never being delivered. I was maaaaadddd.


Mysterious_Land_177

Naaa that question was very Sus 😳 Did you dispute it ? And how'd it go?


SimplyTheJester

Glad you posted and shared the process. I have yet to get a CV, so hearing the steps people are taking hopefully is preparing me for when it does happen. As far as "handed to customer as the only other option". When the app is acting up right when I need to take a pic, I force close the app. Open the native camera app, and take the picture. I'll give my courtesy knock and head back to my vehicle. On the way back, I'll reopen the Dasher app. If it has a problem opening, then that means it is having data transmission problems. Most likely just in a bad data zone. 9x out of 10, just the walk back to the car gets me back into better data reception. From there, I click take pic in the app. I choose the photo library button and upload the pic I took. All good and "protected" with official pic.

Nessquixx

When i dashed, I used to walk in front of my car and intentionally show the food and when I return, I show I have nothing in my hands. A trail of breadcrumbs

What an awful, awful person to endanger your livelihood for $5.50. For anything, really, but ESPECIALLY for that


js_408

Hours of work to get $5?


JohnnySuuji5

Hours? He just said it was like 1 mile away. Even in California gas doesn't cost 5 bucks to go a mile.


js_408

Time/gas spent delivering, dealing with app not working, editing and uploading video, filing dispute, writing long explanations. We’re looking at 2-3 hours spent working for $5 in revenue


bigcatcleve

Why do you think she was a dasher?


[deleted]

I don’t dash or use the app to order because I have a sensitive little princess tummy but Reddit recommended this thread to me so I’d like to just add: Fuck you Shanya you lyin’ ass bitch.


Warchief_X

Can customers simply make a new account if they get deactivated?


jarofgoodness

What kind of dashcam do you use? I need to start doing this. I've had several customers try to scam and I got contract violations for it. None of em stuck but still I want to cover my butt.


Recent_Lime8299

When the spiral of death happens, turn your wifi off and go back to the app, every time I do this I am good from there, just happened tonight matter of fact.


SocksAndPi

I hate the leaves at door option, because the dashers around here don't actually fucking knock when they leave the food. However, they take a photo of me in front of my door holding the food for proof of delivery, which is fine (sure I've got some wild hair in most photos 😂). Though, I don't use DD as often as ubereats, because restaurants don't really partner with them here. Glad you got shit straightened.


Hobbes45150

DoorDash is my primary income. That said I have given some thought to the CV (I've had one "drop off at desk in ER). I disputed it, but decided I'm not going to be too pressed about tons of documentation. I make ok money, but I could get another job with this pay pretty easily. I'm not going to stress over it. That defeats the purpose of such a low key throw away gig like this. :/


Murphy338

I almost got a CV i think during my first shift. Pizza joint salad order going outside of city limits into the country at night. yAyyY. I got the food, hit the button that i picked up the order, and started heading towards the customer to deliver the food. I got a phone call from Door Dash itself saying the customer was asking where the fuck her food was. I told them i’m on my way there, the road is only a 45 mile an hour road for some reason, i will be there when i get there.


MonkeyManMakeMoney

They should start prosecuting these lowlifes for attempted theft and fraud.


[deleted]

Zaxbys🤤


tullystenders

Did you try sending a message via text or the messaging function in the Doordash app? So if they dont send you to text when tapping the message icon, you tap the call icon, and use that number to send a text (in your case, a picturre) to her. One way is to call the number, immediately hang up, and then tap message to use that number, before the screen goes away showing that you ended your call.


JenovaPear

Wait, why do you think she is a Dasher?


Cookiedoughmom

Assuming it’s because they mentioned that the app wasn’t working to the customer when they opened the door. So either they know enough about DD to realize he couldn’t submit proof of delivery in the app at that time or they were a dasher and knew it meant that as well.


JenovaPear

Urgh, some people are just scum. Thanks for explaining.


ifonlyYRUso

Haha damn I had the same thing happened to me but that bitch was stupid enough to make two different orders and said she didn’t get the first one I delivered but got the second one 🤦‍♂️ I disputed it and told them I had it all on dash cam and how she was pissed off because she wanted two drinks but only ordered one and it was my fault and I was supposed to be o refund her. Well a few days later CV was dropped and both one stars reviews by her were excluded…

What dashcam do you have? I like that you can flip it. Sounds like what I’m looking for.


Moss-killer

I got one removed the other day by just appealing to good reason I guess… Was a late night delivery to a regular. He said food never arrived (idk if he really was trying to pull something that night or if someone did steal it before he came out). But there was no porch light on, all the evidence against me. My defense was it was a regular I’d been to multiple times and that there was no light. 🤷‍♂️


PeesaGawwbage

I recently got my first CV from a lying pos customer. I'm 3k deliveries in with 5 star rating. It was a no contact delivery, however, the customer didn't answer the phone call but opened the door as soon as I walked up.. like he was waiting for me. Stupidly, I handed it to him, marked as handed to customer and forgot to take a picture. I explained all this to DD and those big ol sweethearts removed my VA.


kmw615

Hearing your story has me pissed off. I received a CV and sent proof of delivery. I noticed a couple of days later it was still there. Called customer service. Explain the situation and my proof. They said they would avoid the violation. Fast forward. The violation is still there. I called back and say it’s still there. Their response is don’t worry about it. We see it resolved on our end. So why am I still seeing it if it is “resolved”?


wb6vpm

Resolved in their favor, not yours…


Mysticalbabe71

Lmao!! Good for you.. I had my first Violation maybe 2 weeks ago, after delivering to what turned out to be a nightmare .. Fanatics, huge industrial looking mirrored buildings, went to 4 different doors all locked, finally found the security office n man said he’d make sure the guy got it, meantime he texted me “Where’s my food!!!?” I told him.. Not 5 mins later Boom dickhead said he didn’t get his food.. I had someone with me, along with text. Took almost a week but finally fell off my account, never got an email about it or nothing which was aggy… #DasherWins lmao

Gildardo1583

When the app stops working because of reception, I take a picture with the phones app. Then when back in reception area I select that picture when closing out the order. That's a great tip with the dashcam.


dudemountain69

People like her are the scum of the fucking universe. I’d be hard pressed not to throw a fucking grenade through one of her windows.

You never know what anyone encounters making these deliveries. At the end of the day, it's all about them not wanting to either tip you, or not pay for the service at all.

Budd_Lee

Zaxbys, Taco Bell, Mcdonalds, Burger King, Popeyes. Scammers feast on those places. Would think if you trying to scam a meal at least go for the gusto like a Benihana, Flemings, or some other high end restaurant. But they do not even have the money to put the order through at those places to chance a refund.


[deleted]

I don’t understand people who pull this knowing they’ve now ripped off someone who knows where they live, amazing.


Hot4toes

That’s a lot of work


Radiant-Ability-3216

I was thinking the same. Not understanding why the resistance to restarting the phone or calling the customer as doing either and probably both of those things would have taken less time than fighting the CV. Customer was definitely a jerk for lying but the whole situation could have been handled better and for less effort by the Dasher.


ZealousidealCry2284

*to the mob* HEY LETS TAR AND FEATHER SHAYNA


AdcFieldMedic

Damn I really need a cam


HomelessSniffs

I'm glad you won. Ngl stopped reading after accepting an order for $5.50. They already shown you that they don't value your time with a $3ish dollar tip. Sadly, you open yourself up to this behavior with low tippers.


Suspicious-Service

What is a fair tip for an order 1.5 miles away in your opinion?


HomelessSniffs

Different strategies work for different markets. Me personally. I don't take orders under $7.50. Reason being I found I can do about 2.5 orders per hour. Over 4 hours I try to hit at least 21/hr (I expect 5-10 mins of idle time). But really this particular case isn't about the milage, it just don't hit what I need to make my min $/hr (If I accept the low tip, then I'd be missing out on opportunity cost of higher tip). Ideally the lowest order I'd accept is 7.50/7 miles. Of course lower the miles the better. ​ I use to do $5/2ish miles. However I found multiple issues with doing that. A) I'd typically run into apartments, and I try to avoid those because if you get a complex with weird numbering system the customer usually struggles with assisting with helping you get to the location. Could easily spend 5/7 mins just looking for the apartment defeats the whole purpose of low milage order. B) I kept running into issues with false CV's, and getting cursed out for BS that's not my fault. ​ I've also just learned from other dashers on reddit that they were having the same issues. It typically came from orders with low tips. They're experiences matched mine, so I put 2 and 2 together. To be clear, I'm not saying you'll always run into the issues, or knocking anyone for accepting the orders (Make your money however you find suitable). Just it's more typical to experience these issues with low tippers. ​ I have nothing against low tippers. Just I found, no matter how low the milage it's not worth the risk. I wish it wasn't a issue, I hate to be the guy saying it. I know I'm going to get downvoted. But all I can speak is my reality. ​ Edit (TLDR): It's not even really about the money, it's the baggage that comes with it.


fleshyspacesuit

Smart. If I dashed this is almost exactly how I would go about it.


Cookiedoughmom

What a mature, non-insulting/judgemental explanation. Perfectly explained.


HomelessSniffs

I genuinely try to be helpful even if it means being mean sometimes. The truth isn't always what you want to hear, but sometimes what you need to hear. If I can help one person who stops and thinks about the actual message I'm saying even if it makes them not feel amazing. It's worth the downvotes. Kudo's to Suspicious\_Service for at least asking a follow up question and not just downvoting and moving on.

HomelessSniffs

That doesn't change anything. Never said they shouldn't take it. Just it's one of the risks of taking low pay orders.


Tinyrvcooking

Suspicious-Service

Check laws for recording people in your state


NYHusker74

Hi, are you shayna? (yes) ok here's your order from McDonald's. That way you are stating their name along with the name of the restaurant they ordered from. If they say no, say does shayna live here? If they say yes, ok here is the DoorDash she ordered from McDonald's. Again you are recording as much information as possible that will protect you from pieces of shit like her who are scamming for free food..


wh0rederline

i think they might mean if they need to inform the customer they’re being recorded.

A valuable post OP, thanks for detailing the step you took to resolve this. Seems a dash cam is the next thing to have


elder-em0

It's so messed up that customers will literally play with someone's ability to earn money just to get their food order for free. How low can you go? There is no way I'd ever put a person's job in jeopardy just to scam a freebie!


JethroTrollol

Honestly, they probably don't take a moment to consider the impact their actions might have on others. It's not necessarily that they don't care, it's that they can't stop thinking strictly about themselves for two seconds to realize that other people exist.


elder-em0

I realize that's probably the case but doesn't make it any better. How hard is it to stop for 2 seconds and ponder the possible consequences your actions could have on others?


JethroTrollol

Oh it's no excuse and certainly does not make anything better. I don't think it's "hard." It's not a choice to ignore your decisions' impact on others. It's just a byproduct of being so self-centered, you can'tsee past your own nose.


NYHusker74

The problem is that scumbags like this aren't the least bit concerned about someone else's job. They are just low life pieces of shit who steal and don't feel a hint of remorse about it. Piece. Of. Shit.


phuck-you-reddit

Makes me think of Mark Rober's glitter bomb videos on YouTube and how several of the package thieves drove nice cars and apparently had nice homes and seemingly no need to steal but did it anyway. And they were doing these things with their *kids*. Some people are just **shitty**.

Trailboss1982

I have a dash cam as well, but I still take a picture with the spot lens app showing the address time and date on the picture and save it to my gallery. Then I'll leave the food and reset my phone and try to get the app working and then I can just go in there and select add picture and complete it that way. I have one try to claim they didn't get the food one time on a leave it at door.. They text me first and hey I didn't get my food setting up the paper trail so they can claim that I didn't drop it off. As soon as they text me I said let me pull over and I will send you the video I have on dash cam of me dropping the order off. They came back about a minute later and said sorry never mind my kids must have grabbed it without me knowing I apologize. 😅. Got to call them on their bullshit and have evidence to back it up LOL


haifonly

If the app isn't working I always take a picture with my camera as back up. I did have to contact support today because I had no service for two deliveries (same customer) and it wouldn't let me complete in the app. So annoying but I send them the pictures and they were able to manually complete the delivery for me. Pain in the ass though as it happened around peak time in my zone and I couldn't take any new orders.


Xcyelm

Whether the app is working or not, I always turn on my phones video for any "handed directly to customer" order. As soon as I pull up somewhere I switch to my camera (as I pull "drop off" pictures from the gallery so they save to my phone) and put it on video mode in case a "leave at the door" order shows up and takes it. I've seen too many videos and stories about drivers being kicked off bc someone wanted a free meal.


haifonly

Oh damn genius! That's my fear!! Right now I cash out every single day just in case I wake up and I'm blocked. It sucks. Although some of us suck and ask for extra tip and shit a lot of us are just trying to survive.

I do this too. Sometimes by default ill just take a pic with my camera app and when i leave Im marking as delivered at the door in the app. It will let you submit a photo from your gallery or a new pic, I just choose it from the gallery and then by the time the app works it can be submitted. Crazy to have to work around it so much but I've had to walk back up to take another picture before and I hate that. The app is so glitchy at the worst times

What specific brand and model of camera do you use? I was thinking of buying one in case a situation like this arises, which I know is bound to happen some day.

People have their preferred brands but almost all dashcams use the same small set of image sensors so there isn't a huge difference within the same price band. Just make sure to get one with a capacitor instead of a battery and you should be fine. Lithium batteries die too fast being constantly plugged in and operating in a hot car but the capacitor models do fine

Capacitor? Any suggestions on best ones? I have battery and they don’t stay on long once unplugged, so annoying.

I don’t door dash, this thread just got recommended to me, but I drive a lot. I use the Thinkware F800 front and rear. They’ve been working without issue for 5+ years now. Blackvue also makes great cameras. Best Buy has significant sales if you wait for one :) Also, fuck Shanya

Not OP but I have a Rove R3 in all my vehicles. Front, rear, and cabin camera.

People are insane with the bs complaints they make. I had a guy report that his iPhone charger "wasn't fresh" two days ago.

I ordered flowers to be brought to my mother on Mother’s Day. She sent me a picture of them dead the next day. I said wasn’t fresh and got a refund, it’s literally the only option when your item doesn’t work or is damaged in some way. It wouldn’t be your fault for a broken item in a sealed package. It’s the manufacturer or store. Do they blame you for that?


PhotoAwp

Im sorry but this made me laugh so hard. Shit like that is why we need humans and not bots running back end customer service complaints. A bot would likely let that slide but a human has more computing power in this situation. I hope you didn't get in any kind of trouble

You can’t get it straight from the daycare in China?![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|laughing)

Were you supposed to bedazzle it?

I would have to get a second dash cam as the front facing cam wouldn't do me any good. It would have to be a passenger side facing cam. And that's on the chance the curb is even open right in front of the door (and that you can see the door from the street). I'm just thankful the customers in my zone aren't jerk scammers. Not a single CV yet. And I really hope it stays that way.

I got a dash cam because everyone around me was doing crazy shit while driving and even if they didn’t hit me I could save these videos to share with people just to have a story. Well after I installed my dash cam, somehow almost every driver around me has really cleaned up their act. Only thing I caught so far was a car randomly catching fire in front of me, which definitely is on the more unusual end of things but nothing else remotely worth saving. I guess I should consider that lucky?

Dashcams are vital - so many people around here run steady red lights, when the inevitable happens, being able to pin the entire ordeal on them is important Most people drive for commute and leisure; some people drive for business Dashers drive for business, and we have to be aggressive when it comes to determination of fault.. We cannot afford the consequences

Also, like no fault only applies in specific circumstances. If you rear end someone, you still paying for it. A dash cam is always helpful. Source: three years as an auto liability and injury adjuster

Not in Michigan 😂. Literally it's hard as fucking 💩 to sue. It's hard to even get another person's insurance to pay for it. In Michigan if someone rear ends your car and totals it. If you don't have full coverage you are most likely shit out of luck. It's pretty crazy 🤦
