I was running some errands this morning and in a great mood (did a little shopping )

I was coming home and turned in to the entrance to go in the gate of my developement and waited for the car ahead to go in, instead they reverse right into my car    We all get out. The two guys are in their late teens, early twenties (polite but still made me a little nervous) ....we check out the cars and they tell me..."Oh no big deal....you got lucky". Well, there's a crack so I call my husband and of course he wants me to call the cops. They wanted to give me money but I said no. They were very adamant about not calling the cops...said they had insurance but didn't want it to go up :roll: Well, nothing they could do because they were blocked in...the gate in front and me in the back. Then a man comes up and says "you have to move your cars...you're blocking the gate" so he opens the gate for the kids and I say "ok, lets go right there" inside the gate and they say "no, we'll go right there" outside the gate. We go out, stop, all get out of the cars and then they jumped in their car and took off  :?

Luckily while I was talking to my husband he told me to give him their tag number so he called it in. I actually remembered the make and model of the car to my surprise (not only was I nervous but I had just finished a nice big Starbucks which always makes me a little jittery!)

The cops came and I gave a statement and description. The driver was not the man in the picture that showed up on her computer (but looked like an older versian of the passenger). Hopefully they find them...

Wow, they actually ran away?  I'll bet they didn't have ins.  With so many out of work, premiums aren't getting paid.  They may lose their license for a thing like this.  You were on your toes Karen.  Getting that license number and car make/model was way more than I would have thought to do.  Hope they get the sucka!

Nerve wracking, I hope the rest of your
day went better.

I can see why you would be so nervous , I would have been to.
Then they take off and leave the scene of the accident. I hope they catch them soon.. Pat

I'm so glad you were able to give the license number to your husband!  When they find them, and I'm sure they will, they will regret their idea of running.  This will really not look good for them.  So instead of a small fender bender, it's going to be hit and run.

Actually yes, it can effect your insurance as you will be making a claim - I would get an estimate first and find out what your deductible is before doing that though.

I am very glad you are safe and sound, that could of turned into a bad situation - and I'm betting it was more than just not having insurance that made them take off.

omg Karen that is scary!! I am glad they didnt do anything real stupid but how awful for that to happen to you. Wonder who they were trying to visit?  Maybe you will see them again.  I am glad you are okay & just a bit shaken up.
