Dont insurance pay out for thefts if u got full coverage?

Yeah usually for new cars for used based on the value
but

1. Wait time for new cars at many dealerships are months
2. Used car market expensive
3. You might have important documents in that car

I don't think the owner of the stolen vehicle should've taken this path
since when have 12 - 16 year old been menaces like this?
Something gotta be done, these kids attacking teachers and stealing cars turnt up, meanwhile..




Y'all gone have to decide how you get these young people to respect y'all, it's clear momma alone ain't cutt'n it.
People work hard for theirs to let these undisciplined children think there ain't no consequences. Who raised them?

do people not have car insurance and gap coverage (if still financed). Why not tell the police where the app. spotted your car. He almost lost his life over a car and now a12 year old is dead. Not, saying these thieves are not at fault but the aftermath could have been avoided.
The police won't stop their day to chase stolen cars unless it's some sort of an emergency. People who are financially desperate will take matters into their own hands to look for their cars.

the cops dont care man so your left with a decision of handling it yourself or walking away.
This. Friend of mine's car got stolen dudes who did left all their shyt in it (I think they ran out of gas). So mail, all kinds of evidence. Cops didn't do shyt but charge her $100s for the tow and fees for the time it was on the lot.

Think about how fukk ed up that is. Your car gets stolen and cops make a profit off of it if it just happens to turn up somewhere.

Your shyt gets stolen or you get robbed, you're on your own.

This is one reason why some of us give dense urban settings the finger and move out to the woods once we can afford some land. Nothing better than space between me and others. To hell with all the corruption that naturally arises when too many people encroach on one another.

It ain't fukk everybody, but it's definitely fukk the rest of y'all, if that makes sense :smugfavre:

The police ain’t going to do shyt about it because you are not a corporation so that argument is pointless.

As far as gap insurance and all that other shyt .. maybe they don’t have it. So now what?

thats not the reason at all, it's poverty caused by income/wealth inequality.
