Question
hi i got into a car wreck  5 days ago  i pulled out of a parking lot in the road was clear in a car that was going over the speed limit hit me and i had insurance would i be at foul? and would the wreck hurt me on getting a good job?

Answer
Hi Rafael,

The wreck will be considered to be your fault. Your insurance company will pay for the damage. This will not affect your ability to get a job unless you drive for a living. Even then, if this is the only thing on your driving record, it should not be that big of a deal.

I hope this helps
