It happened to me before not too long ago(about 2 months). Someone thought they could get away from me after bumping into my car. I saw them hit my bumper and I HAULED *** to my car. Jumped in the car and chased them down. I guess they didn't know how fast 400hp can reel them in. I got their plates and called in the police as a hit and run. They got screwed haaaaard afterwards. They paid for everything afterwards and then some....

If this every happens to you, don't confront them or beat them down after they run away. That will just get you into trouble. Just try as hard as you can to follow after them just to get the plates and then call it in. They get slammed with a much harsher penalty for hit and run.

Ouch man. I feel your pain. My car got hit in the parking lot at school a couple weeks ago. I talked to campus security but there was really nothing they could do.

I hate the idiots that don't have the guts to own up for their mistake and just drive off.

Yes. After I bought the car, my father took it to a body shop, and they fixed the rear bumper, replaced the front, and took out some dings.

I took the car to the shop this morning, and I had that taken care of for $150.00 =] He's also giving me the can of paint for $25.00!!!!
