I was driving my Scion tC 06 last night and got involved in a car accident. Someone came in-front of me from side road. He was trying to cross the road to go opposite directions. As I was driving at 40 mph and I saw him and I did hard break but it was too late. After that it's not starting, so obviously no gas. It's a stick shift car. I called 911 and I'm waiting for police report. It was completely other guys fault. Now my concern is how much money they gonna pay me to repair my car if that engine is dead?? We both have full insurance with geico.

In some cases, where the damage cannot be readily assessed because it is "hidden", the insurance company might opt out at less than 60% because it doesn't want to be deluged with "supplement" requests from the body shop.
I saw this happen recently on a Porsche that was rear ended. Initially the insurance company ordered the vehicle to be fixed but when they pried the engine compartment open, they saw engine damage and upon hearing that the insurance company immediately totaled the car.
