Sorry about your car. Been there before myself. Sat on the horn while someone backed into me. I was blocked in be cars fore and aft so I couldn't move. It's frustrating but a good body shop can amaze you.

The whole thing sucks but at least it was minor, maybe not as costs go but as far as damage. Also, you won't have to worry about suspension being messed up and all that fun stuff with big accidents.
Good luck!

Not to be an ass or anything. But Acura's new styling, similar to a bird (hence the pointy front and back bumper), did not help what so ever. Looks like it gave you a poke check

No offense but, and hyperbole aside, if another driver's stupidity/negligence would cause you to want to shoot someone then you probably should not own a firearm regardless of whether it is kept in your car.

if you think this is bad, there was a forum member who's car got hit and run by a CRAZY drunk driver who just randomly decided to reverse at a high speed into his car while he was at a liquor store. he has the whole thing on videotape (courtesy of the liquor stores security cams). Do a search for it and you'll see for yourself. If this makes you angry, that will make you want to tear your hear out !

Same thing happened to me in my brand new '08 550i when I was sitting in a line of traffic waiting to exit a mall. For a moment I figured that it was so obvious that I could forgo a police report but decided it to call them just in case. It was clearly her fault as the report clearly stated. However, when it came time for her to report it to her insurance company, she said that she was backing up and I swerved around her making me partially, if not mostly, responsible. If I hadn't had the police report my insurance company could have reemed me for the accident. Instead, it was deemed 100% her fault and my policy was unaffected.

I heard (somebody correct me on this if it's inaccurate plz) that the insured has no right to admit fault - i.e. that determination is ultimately with his or her insurance company. So, in an accident, if there's no police accident report, but the other party wrote you, on the spot, a written admission of guilt, his or her insurance company can still decide to challenge & contest the ruling/outcome. And, in many cases, even your own insurance company is not watching your interest, which is why many people automatically get an attorney.

I disagree. However firearms can lead to a sticky legal situation, particularly if empty shell casings are left lying around.

BTW - in regards to OP - Acura ZDX is the worst looking car! Up there with Pontiac Aztec.
