Most people feel without their car life is impossible. Can I get to work? Can the kids get to school? What about bowling, the baseball game, etc. So the first priority is to get the car fixed. As you know this can be very stressful. Lots of calls to the insurance company. Followed by unreturned calls from an adjuster, and then dealing with an “insurance approved” body shop.
