So yeah. Was moving the other day and my roommate made a turn too short and hit my car with the uhal truck WHILE MY CAR WAS PARKED. Now this is my first time ever getting into a car accident. What should I do? My dad told me to take it to the dealership. Now how does this work? Do I just go to the dealership and ask for an estimate? and tell my friend to give me the estimate?

***Forgotto mention this earlier but HE DOES NOT HAVE AN INSURANCE. He told me to get an estimate. Anyone ever had to deal with this?

Here are some pix.
He hit the edge of the bumper and sliced through the headlight and also hit the fender as well. I figure its going cost a lot. Anyone know the how much it might cost?
