Some nitwit rear-ended me at a light tonight.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

Smashed the shit out of the front of his car. Not even a scratch on mine. He hit my trailer hitch. And, what's better, there was a cop right behind him that saw the whole thing.

I let the poor fucker go. He was not drunk. I was not hurt, and my car is fine.

What's the point?

1. I don't understand what you mean by letting him go. I know what you

mean about "What's the point?" - but how was it your decision to let him go if the cop saw it?

2. No injury. No complaintant. In NY

that means, go on your way.

3. Ah. Well I didn't know that, even as a native NYer. Been driving since

'75 with no accidents, so I'm rather lightly informed on such matters.

4. South Conduit at 150th street

There must be 100 accidents a day around there

5. I'd probably have been in some if I'd stayed in NYC. Although, I pretty

much always used mass transit, so maybe not.

6. I've been rear-ended before, but it wasn't his fault.

There was some black ice on the road and I skidded. Luckily my car stopped without hitting anything, but the driver behind me couldn't stop. He hit me and smashed the back of my car pretty good. He was driving a pickup truck, so he didn't even have a dent. The policeman didn't charge him. And his insurance company paid for the damage to my car.

13. I have this mechanic who got "ass-ended"

but he pronounced it like ascended and it took me a LONG time to figure out what the hell he was talking about

11. I was thinking . . .

. . . emergency room + good doctor + neck brace = $20,000.

;)

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

12. Yeah, there is that

But... let hard working, but poor driving immigrant go home and fix his own car + not lie + not cheat x not demonstrable damage to car= good karma
