What scumbags!

I hit a car on my hurried way to work in a parking lot when I first started driving and felt terrible! So I left them a note on their car of where they could find me and went to work. The girl eventually came in and I gave her my insurance info. and lo and behold, she never made a claim! Personally, I think she was into her cups from the bar next door and forgot all about it. But I just don't understand how people can hit and run like that.

I haven't but I'll be glad to bring some pop corn and lawn over to your place and watch you try it.

But seriously, I can give you a few references on places that can take it out.... also if you have pictures I can get my roomy to take a look at it, he does body fabrications.

Ah, the joys of living downtown. I never had these problems when I drove an old 1990 Accord. Savannah owners are now 2 hit and runs (me and dan) and 1 break in/theft attempt.

That sucks. Some ass hit me on the front 3 weeks ago, and the car was already hit on the back when I bought it.

I won't drive it DT unless I utterly have to the truck is for DT.

Wow... nearly the same thing happened to mine monday. Luckily a neighbor saw it happen and called the police. So, when I got to the car it had a accident report claim form on my windshield.

UNFORTUNATELY, in my case, my driver's door is toast. it is creased, pushed all the way down to the cross support, and one of the hinges is bent. By the first two estimates through two of the shops I WOUL be willing to go to, it is looking like a new door, paint, labor, blending, etc. -- to the tune of almost $1900 in my case.

Hope you find the f!@cker who hit yours!
