Crashing into lamp post

[Turbonetics]

But what is the roughly price for the replacement of the lamp post.. i was thinking dunno want to claim insurance or pay myself..

 

i don't think they will get a new lamp post.

they will erect back the same lamp post.

[Turbonetics]

if you bang a lamp til fall down.. your car also very jialat.. heard people say 1 lamp post $5K.

 

so unless you are bloody rich and can run away before people see you, then you dun have to claim.. if not claim ins.

 

Ins co will handle everything

you will be surprise how easily a lamp post can be hit down.

[Turbonetics]

Tell you guys the whole incident, please give advice if i should claim it or pay for it all by myself..

 

Total repair to my car cost around 5k...

Lamp post damage not too sure yet... have not recieve the letter yet...

 

i'm the third party for the insurance... and so under the clause..

 

i need to pay $3000, cause i'm under 25 yr old..

another of $450 cause i'm the third party...

 

Which mean no matter how much is the total damage.. i need to pay $3450 upfront regardless of how much i'm claiming..

 

So is it till worthwhile to make claim or pay by my own?

 

just make an insurance claim and fork out the excess.

drive carefully,how on earth can you hit a lamp post.

It depends on the damage I guess. I think it should amount to $1.3k for the lamp post replacement give and take.

 

Trust me bro, Please claim insurance. Lucky you never knock down the tree instead :X

claim insurance lah...

 

LTA will sure send the bill to your insurer.

 

For those normal lamp post, it costs around $2K - $3K (including labour)

For those lamp post with cameras on top, it costs around $7K - $8K

 

One more thing, the replacement costs are quite non-negotiable. Have to pay in full. Becos LTA pay upfront & claim from you. Think the only good thing is LTA absorb GST.

 

How i know? Cos my job got involve paying LTA these crap bills.

 

Guess u can roughly know what is my occupation.

 

Who is your insurer?

1 of my fren who bang lamp post and tree before, he told me tat tree is more expensive than lamp post.

 

So... If u have the choice, aim tat lamp post.
