It is pretty obvious it was a pole, don't think they would buy it.
I was sorta kidding but with any luck if something else happens that is not her fault then you can get it all fixed in one shot.
practically every accident I have ever been in was someone else hitting me, one guys hood flew off and hit my windshield the guy kept going like nothing had happened I chased him down for about a mile and he finally pulled into a trucking business scared, talked to him for a minute and I coulld tell the guy didn't have much sense nor 2 pennies to rub together, let alone insurance, driving some pos with the hood tied on, I just shook my head and left, told my insurance company a hood flew off and hit me and I didn't see who it was.
