    Thats probably the right price. The entire thing probably has to be replaced as a unit & they are using union labor to replace it. Thats not cheap.

          Do you have property damage insurance? aka liability? its a state law to have liability in CA.

            Sounds about the right price. We install stuff like that as part of our road construction projects. They can get a lot more expensive. And you are apparently paying for removal of the damaged materials, and replacement. "Public work" in many states is done at "prevailing wage". Our lowest paid common laborer here in NJ is paid close to $45/HR including mandatory benefits.

                  they told us 12,000 for the bus stop,2,000 for the labor,Im gonna try to go to court and fight it,how can this thing be 12,000,its very small,and plastic,and the bench wasnt even replaced,just the shelter, i had liabilty insurance but it ran out the day the accident happened,and I dont think they would have covered my gf anyways

                        Maybe you should invest a few $$$ in driving lessons, and make sure you keep your insurance up to date. You always seem to blame someone else for your problems. Someday you will have to learn how to accept responsibility like an adult.
