Hahaha! I don't have a car. >

...wait.

Same thing happened for my elder brother when his car was damaged. However, rather than wait for the dreaded estimate, he decided to get a new car entirely. Unfortunately in my family, my parents aren't too happy about it, since he's already decided he wants another car.

My uncle also experienced this, but unlike my brother, he decided to repair it himself. Perhaps you could find a family member or close, trusted friend who knows a bit of something about cars.

You're not alone. I'd feel the same way if I'm forced to wait for a week or two for the estimate of my damaged car.
