I've been run into twice on the road, ironically, both times while in a medium/heavy truck. Both times, empty, thankfully.
The first time was a rusty F600, with a new engine in it. An idiot never saw the stop sign, and I T-boned him on the blind intersection. There sat my new engine and radiator askew, as the both frame members pointed off to the left. The adjuster must have been highly paid by the insurance company, because he didn't think my truck was worth much. The good 14' box w/hoist, new engine, didn't impress him at all. I think I got $1500 and I kept the truck. The best part was my attorney put in a loss of income claim and they paid it! It took a while to work myself out of that hole, but I did. Bought a light cab and chassis and proceeded to build one truck out of two.
The second time a senior citizen failed to negotiate a gentle curve, side swiped my IH 2050A, and knocked my rear axle far enough back on one side that the drive shaft came apart. This time the adjuster was totally different. He had owned trucks. He kept looking at my nice EBY aluminum box, and saying "this truck is worth fixing". He priced parts/repairs at local shops. I did the work, and was able to use some things I already had (tires/rims/etc.) I actually made money this time!
