Try not to freak...they're just trying to scare you. Don't answer at all. Mail the letter to the rental company and let them handle it. Send it certified mail so you get a receipt (costs $4.42)...You are totally out of the picture until the people you hit have exhausted anything they can get from the rental car's insurance company and then they can go after your insurance company (if you have one) but it could be years and years. Keep copies of everything to do with it, don't worry about it and don't talk to anyone. You have a 95% chance that this will never amount to anything. Believe me, I'm 65 and my husband and I live in a large city in Texas and have had our share of fender benders. Relax. The last one he was hit at an intersection by a one-eyed man--and, yes, the guy had a valid driver's license that specified the driver was blind in one eye. Amazing.
Incidentally, when you rent a car, ONLY take the extra insurance they try to sell you if you have no liability insurance of your own. Otherwise it's a rip-off.
Hang in there and for goodness sake, save us all and vote Bush out of office. Goodnight!
