Coming back from fishing Satuday afternoon and I stopped at a stop sign. Guy behind me decides he wants to bump my car. I turn around to look at him and he "waves sorry". I trun left and pull over at the curb. He thinks otherwise, turns right and drives off. Had he just stopped and got out it would have been no big deal. Minor damage, nickel sized dent in rear bumber, proabably from the screw head for the licesnse plate. I would not have even considered trading insurance info, my car is a little beat up as it is, from the previous owner. But since he drove off I called the cops. We got a plate number and it came back as the right description I gave the cop of his car. So now I'm in contact with my insurance and they are in contact with his. Moral of the story, don't commit hit and run, cause it will come back to bite you in the ass.
 
Dang man. I had a somewhat similar experience. Turning out of the Salvation Army (was taking my mom to the doctor; she loves thrift stores and I had no choice), I almost got creamed by a Charter Cable van. I've hated Charter Cable for their billing practices; now I hate 'em because they employ crash test dummies.
 
yea lol. It's kinda becoming a pain for me though, having to deal with the police and insuracne company is not a walk in the park. Especially when i'm in class most of the day during their operating office hours.
 
Bumping me at junctions is not a big problem I have a tow ball on the back of my Honda, hit me and you end up with a 50mm hole in your bumper. I don't careif they stop, in this country, with our little european cars, they'd hole their rad if they hit me hard enough to do any damage.

I just have to cope with assenhollas that drive too slow or too fast, overtake poorly, don't signal at roundabouts and junctions or decide to speed up while I'm overtaking them forcing me over the speed limit. Daily. It really annoys the hell out of me.
