Well, I was having a good day today because I was finally able to hang out with my lady. We had lunch in Long Beach and were talking about work, politics, and such. After our little lunch, I headed back towards LBCC (long beach city college) and I was waiting for a parking spot near where my girlfriend had parked. Of course, I had my hazard lights on and there was a fella who was coming out on my right up ahead.
BAM! I saw a big black SUV on my left side view mirror and I shift into park and then this is where the bad part begins... her '99 Mercedes-Benz ML 320 vs. my '05 Honda Civic
I come out and this lady parks (I actually thought she was going to take off! lol) and she said, "OH! Looks like
we both backed up into each other." (No bitch.. she backed out from her parking space).
I replied, "Uhh, no ma'am. I was here with my hazard lights on trying to get that empty parking spot up ahead. You backed up into my car."
I looked at my car and she was just staring at me and I said, "Damn! Not again!" I've about 3 cracks and the bumper is sticking out. Not too bad, but she pissed me off.
^Didn't take the right rear corner pic, but the car didn't have any damage.
^Not much damage, but I love this car so much!
Then, she gets all crazy trying to say that I was backing up. It was clearly her fault. Doesn't matter if you ride is tall and that my ride is lowered, it is STILL HER RESPONSIBILITY to make sure that the lot is empty before backing out.
She kept yelling at me and gave me this really annoying childish attitude (she's like in her late 30s to early 40s), so instead of getting the paperwork right away, I called the cops and then decided to get her paper (insurance and whatnot) with the presence of the cop (yeah, dumb idea of waiting, but she wasn't going anywhere and she was really pissing me off). She continued with her jibberish about how my car was parked and that I was backing up. hahaha. What a lunatic. During the yell, my lady comes in between us while the lady was bitching and had said, "All right! Both of you relax!" Then the lady looks at me and says, "Yeah!" haha! My lady looks at her and said, "Look, lady. He didn't raise his voice at you nor did he give you an attitude like yours. Please calm down. No need to yell."
I swear, at this point I wanted to slap the shit out of her so bad, but I wouldn't do that, because I know her husband probably does that to her. I'll let him do that shit. (I don't hit females lol)
During the wait, I went up to the guy who had taken my spot (the one spot I was waiting for
) and had asked him if he saw the accident. Unfortunately, he didn't, but I asked him if he can give me his information that I was originally going to take the spot and that I had my hazard lights on. He was very cool with me and he even signed it at the bottom, along with a written explanation that I was going to take the spot and that I was waiting for it with my hazard lights on.
The cop came (maybe a sheriff.. don't remember) and he basically wrote everything for us. At the end of the information exchange, he asked what had happened. The dumb lady started to say something, but was stuttering (like she had a cock in her mouth or something) and shuts up and I interrupted and said, "Officer, I was waiting for the parking space right here with my hazard lights on, and then all of a sudden her black Mercedes backed up into my car. She was saying that I backed up. I even have a person's information who saw that I had my hazard lights on and that I was waiting for the parking spot."
Funny, because the dumbass lady kept her mouth shut. Come to think of it, I believe she started her attitude and her constant yelling and shouting towards me because she had realized that she lost this case, so perhaps she wanted me to boil with anger and frustration and to strike her. Don't know. Not sure.
It was her time to speak and I don't clearly remember what she had said, but she made the most fucking retarded statement to all of us (5 people). Dumbass said, "I looked back and I saw his car and
assumed that he was going to drive up forward and I backed up and I hit him." She made a complete ass goblin out of herself!
The cop said that that was clearly her fault, but since he isn't the insurance adjuster or whatever, that he couldn't really say who won. But, he did say and imply that it was her fault. Now, before the cop left, he did say we had a choice of handling this situation with insurance or through local body shops on our own. He did mention that her premium will increase and that mine may increase as well.
Why would my premium increase, assuming that it was her fault?? and can I sue my insurance company if I win and the premium increases???
The cop called me over to confirm that my car was actually mine. He then said, "Jonathan? I need you over here."
The lady: "Great! I'll have to see this!" She thought it was something bad and was glad that I might be caught for something.
The cop: "I need you to remove that paper to see your VIN number. Why do you have it covered?"
Me: "I'm a member of civicforums.com and I have read an article that people have been illegally obtaining copies of other owner's keys to steal cars."
haha! civicforums FTW!!
Cop: "Ohhh, okay. It's okay."
Since the childish lady gave me a living hell at that moment, I decided to make her life somewhat hellish by calling up my insurance company to report the accident. I had given all the details and had mentioned about my witness (my girlfriend) and the guy who had seen me waiting for the parking spot. I did mention about the cop saying that she pretty much lost the case and the lady over the phone did say that that may be a big factor towards winning a case, but that there was no guarantee. The lady over the phone asked, "Did he mention that it was her fault to you or to everyone?" I said, "Everyone, including her."
My car is bad luck or something.. almost every year, I've been getting an accident or two.
Thanks for reading and I apologize for the lack of organization.
