He's insured in Chicago, and barely spoke any english.  He gave me a copy
of the rental agreement, his phone #, drivers license #, etc.  He declined
all of the insurace at the rental agency.  The guy was just plain
clueless...he almost got hit by a snow plow while walking across the
street.  As in, stepped in front and I had to pull him back before he got
killed.  From the damage on the Kia, its pretty obviouis he was in the
wrong, so if he gives me any problems, I'll just sick State Farm on the
poor bastard.  It doesn't help that my insurance is in michigan, his
personal insurance is a small company in Chicago and the accident happened
in MA in a MA rental car.  Plus, the cops were too busy to show up.  Kind
of muddies the water.  

Does anyone know how this works?  I'll call him and ask him for $600 for an
exhaust system.  If he complains, then I'll deal with insurance companies.
I just have no idea how massachusetts insurance laws works...
