I parked my Chim in Matlock last night and went for a walk. When I got back to the car a witness informed me that an elderly gent had tried to park infront of me into the very large space. And even with all the shouting from the witness to stop he still reversed into the front of my car mad Then he decided to have another go and reversed into it a 2nd time furious
At this point 2 people were shouting at him to stop, he did not even get out of the car to look at the damage. He just drove off......................
Ok the damage is very slight cosmetic and will possibly T Cut out, but how annoying........
I have his reg and have informed the Police, he will be getting a letter of intention to prosecute for leaving the scene of an accident.

That's awful.

However, what's even worse is that he probably genuinely didn't realise he'd done it! How scary is that.

I have spoken to a customer of mine who said that when he used to go out with his dad driving he got to the point of refusing to go because he said his father was knocking into things and genuinely not realising.

Hope you get it sorted!http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/imgs/8.gif

Shocking, hope your car is ok.

Sadly your the wrong end of the country to me, as I would of happily machine polished your bumper to get it sorted

Hope you get your marks sorted and the other driver has his driving standards brought to his attention

I have managed to polish the scuff marks out, and the Police will be dealing with him for driving off. Would be nice if they sent him off to do some extra driving lessons and he got me, the local Driving Instructor..........shoot
