I believe many of you must have similar experiences but I'd like to hear some positive solid solutions from you guys.

Ok this is what happen to me yesterday, I was sitting inside my car waiting for my gf on Yonge St. north of Eglinton ave in Toronto. A white bigass domestic car with a NEW YORK plate backed in my front bumper while parallel parking. I got off car, inspected the damage.(paint chipped/crack) I was thinking " Thank god! at least my fiberglass Veilside is still good !"

The passenger, a fat woman in her 40-50 age, got off car and asked me if I can move my car back a bit in a very unfriendly manner.

I said "Ya I would but you just bumped my car".

She said "NO I DID NOT!"

I said " Oh yes you did! I was inside the car and you bumped it!!"
I showed her the damage.

She said" Oh com'on!! you probably got that damage before!!"
I got pissed and I repeated my words.

She said" Call the police! CALL CALL ~!!!!" then she just walked away.
I said " OK I am calling police!"

I know popo WILL NOT give a shiit for this so I got down the license plate number, and consult my insurance company see what they suggest. After 5min. talking on phone. The driver showed up, a coward looking short asssholle in his 40~50 age, who was about to drive his car away. I got off car and walked to him. He then sped up so I ran after his car and hitted his trunk with my hand!! He stopped and gave me a "Wa da FACK?!" gesture. I yelled loud to him saying "You are NOT gonna get away like this !!"

I know that coward admitted his fault and was afraid of me calling police or perhaps doing "sth" to his car so he drove off. But I had a feeling that he was still around since the fat woman did not get on the car with him. Few minutes later, I decided to seek for that coward and I was lucky enough to stop RIGHT behind him at a red light !! so I followed his car and snapped some pix with my phone.




I almost lost my temper that I was about to shoot him if I had a gun!! I know violence will never solve sth like this but I don't seem to find a real solution for this. This is NOT my first time having this happened to me. I remember last time a facking gayass bumped in my front bumper and said to me" it is just a bump! call the police if you want!" I actually did called 911 and guess what!! If no one is dying here, PoPo will still be sipping their coffee.

Many others suggested me to file a Hit and Run to popo but I doubt popo will even bother to run a search since the damage is minor. Besides, I was told that Hit and Run has to be on a highway, and popo will do NOTHING about this cuz it happens everyday.

Chasing him down the street and fvcuking up is definitely not gonna solve anything but will put myself into bigger trouble. But this really sux and if popo cannot protect the innocents, people will start to do something to defence themselve such as carrying a batt, or even a gun. Eventually there will be more shooting and crime just because popo don't care about somthing minor!

What would you guys suggest? Thanks

I would call the insurance company if the cops dont do anything but seeing as you already called, so what did the insurance company say? And if you dont mind me asking, whats that on your hood?

chase the ******* down and nicely key up their shitty car.

I imagine that, being an international plate, it'll be a giant pain in the *** to ever get anything out of the guy, especially considering the small scale of the damage. Also, there aren't any witnesses, really, you can't prove that he hit your car, or did you get someone to coroborate it? Personally, I would've parked my car right in front of theirs until the police got there, regardless of how much fuss it would have caused, with any luck they may have left some paint on your car, so at least the police officer might side with you.

its called hit and run, and its illegal. should have called the cops with the plate. as soon as they try to leave back to NY then would have been detained.

Go to the police station and tell them the story

fieryhill

Too bad you couldn't have gotten out and snapped the picture of the cars before he took off, could have taken it to small claims. But of course I would not have thought of doing something like that myself, I usually think of a solution or the right way of doing things after I already did it the wrong way.

What I would suggest is first talk to the person your involved with. If nothing is worked out as in your above situation, then get down as much information as possible (especially vehicle tag/description and of the driver) and attempt to call police. If nothing is done by the police or no report is written, at least get some sort of 'incident number' that records that you attempted to report the incident. It's just a CYA for when you call your insurance company. Next step is to contact your insurance company and tell them what happened and give them the information you got. They will at least attempt to contact the other party and/or insurance company of the other vehicle. I don't know what the law states in Toronto but in MD, if you are involved in an accident you HAVE TO provide your information. If not, its a hit and run and is a crime. Happens all the time here. Hope this helps. Obviously violence isn't the way to solve the problem but people do get mad and tempers fly and stuff happens.

PS and yes if you have a camera, do take pictures of the accident. It might come in handy.

if you thought the cops really wouldnt have done anything, then yeah i would just kicked his **** in or something. that would have got him to stop. i know i've got the wrong attitute, but i don't really care.

fieryhill

If its on private property you dont have to report it to the police...but you DO have to exchange information even if it is just a "bump/scratch".

hmmmmm...wait a minit...wtf....If I was in the situation and some outsider comes in my town and pull that ****, they're getting fugged up. as soon as I told her she bumbed my car and she denies it, she would of been on the floor. then the driver comes out to see what happnes he will be on the floor, then i'm jumping in my car and i'm out. no bull **** is my name.

a week ago some idiot went right in front of me, through his stop sign where i have no stop, and then stopped his car. then he flips me off cause I beeped!
I got out of my car flipping out cause i almost hit him and they all started yelling **** in spanish. so i kicked his crappy old accord's door and left a nice mark, screamed at him some more, and went and got my tire iron. too bad he sped off as soon as his crap got kicked. i was about to cust his face in.

So anymore when I see an old black accord with chopped springs and steelies carting around a bunch of crappy welfare recipients in it, the car always drives away very fast.

Thats my only good story that I can think of right now.

Im guessing that his car is not a 7thgen vic or is it? That black thing (possible DRL sensor) on the dash is throwing me off, since my vic doesnt have it.

I seem to remember hearing that Canada was no-fault insurance...any Canadians who know wtf they're talking about around here? cos' if it's no-fault, it wouldn't matter if you call your insurance, theirs, or the cops, you'd still be paying.
