Me: "Wait, you have a permit AND no insurance?..."

Oh my gawd Porsche people! OH MY GAWD! [said like a valley girl, lol]

Picture this...

I'm parked at my friends house, after coming back from the
beach. And he was inside showering or doing something weird,
and I'm sitting in my driver's seat dancing; because i'm cool,
and the radio was on.
Then I hear some kid yelling something. He was talking to his
friend that was in a car that was behind me; about 10 feet back.
So i'm thinking to myself: "Shut up kid, gawd damnit!", because
his yelling was interupting my music time. lol. While looking
through my passenger side mirror, I see him start walking in my
direction. And he starts yelling something at his friend that's
still in the car, that was inching towards where I was parked.
At this time, the loud mouthed kid was about even with my passenger
side door.I look at him, and think to myself: "When will this kid stop tal...?".
But before I could finish my thought, my car shook. At first,
I thought it was my friend messing around, and shaking my car.
But, to my surprise, I looked through my driver's side mirror and
see a gray 1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera SL pinned against my car.


Looks like this, but gray, and old looking

I began to spazm out of control, and shook my fist violently.....
Hahaha, no.. I really didn't.
But, after he hit me, I got out of the car quite calmly, even though
I wanted to attack the guy with my crazy kung fu moves of death.
After I stepped out, he put the car in reverse, and backed up
roughly 5 feet; and then stopped. I thought he was going to try and
run, but he didn't. And I am glad, because that would have been
a great chase; him in a Cutlass, and me in my 944. ::sarcastic:: lol.
All right, then he gets out of his car, and he looks like he's going
to die; he was so scared.

This is how the conversation went:
Him: "Oh my gawd, I am soooo sorry!" . And sounded exactly like a valley girl.
Me: "Do you have your license on you?"
Him: [3 sec. pause] "Uhm, I only have my permit."
Me: "Ok, well go ahead and pull over to the side, or in the drive
way so I can get all your information."[/i]
Him: "Ok."

[After pulling in the drive way, and after he shuts off the car,
I walk over to his passenger side]

Him: [repeats] "Oh my gawd, I am soooo sorry!" . Valley girl again.
Me: "Go ahead, and give me your permit, and insurance."
Him: [pause]
Me: "Do you have insurance?"
Him: "Uhm, I don't know... See my dad just baught this car for $500
to get around."

Me: "Ok... Then go through your glove compartment, and get me anything
about the car."

Him: "All right."

[As he looks through the glove compartment, I begen to write all his
information down off of his permit (Name, Lc#, Address,.. ect.)., Then
he returns with some papers, and one was an old insurance sheet, that
I got all the car details off of. (Make, Model, Year,... ect.]

Me: [while writting] "So, you live around here?"
Him: "Ya, on Azusa"
Me: "Really?"[even though I had his address. lol. All for conversation.]
Him: "Ya... So, what's going to happen? I am so scared, I don't know
what's going on."

Me: [Then I stated the steps of how we can handle it, and since he
had no insurance, there was only one route; that being: I get a quote,
and he pays for it.]
Him: "Ok."

Now there's silence for about 5 minutes while I'm writting everything down.
After I'm done, He asks "what is he suppost to do now?" I tell him
"Go home, and tell your parents exactly what happend."
So he leaves, and about 2 minutes later my friend comes outside... And
I tell him. He's like: "What the hell?"
Then he goes back inside to put on shoes or something... And while he's
inside, I see the same car that hit me drive up and park next to me.
The guy, that was driving it before, was sitting in the passenger seat, and
this girl that I assumed was his sister gets out of the driver's side,
and starts giving me an attitude asking: "What happend? Show me what happend."
And while she's rambling on about me showing her something, I am thinking to
myself: "Who the hell is this? She wasn't here, what does she have to do with
this?"

So I show her the damage; which is an obvious dent, and she says: "What?!..
That can be buffed out! And look at that, that's already cracked."
Refering to
my stoneguards.
I'm like: "Cracked? You mean the stoneguards? That are made out of plastic?
What does me having cracks in my stoneguards have anything to do with him hitting
my car, and denting the quater panel?"

She then walks to the other side of my car and starts feeling the other side,
and says: "There's a bump over on this side too!" - I respond: "A bump?"
And at that time, I was getting pretty eritated from her attitude. I go to the
other side, and feel where she said there was a bump. There was no bump. So
then I say: "Go ahead and look at your front right bumper and the marks and
dent on my car match your car."

As she goes to look at her car, the guy in the car said: "Man, I am so sorry,
I didn't bring her to do anything."
Then I said: "No stress man, I understand
what's she TRYING to do."
At this time, my friend is already outside.
Then she tells me that it's her car, and to call her with the quote. And that
her brother works at the Toyota dealership, and he works in the body shop area.
And my friend says: "Wait, so Toyota has Porsche parts now?" So I got her
info, and then they left. But not before stopping my a car that parking about
20 feet behind them, and told them something. So i'm thinking they brought
back-up for some reason. Uh oh, were they going to beat me up? lol.
So then roughly 30 minutes later, I get a call from the kid who hit me saying:
"Man, I am so sorry about that. I didn't want her to do that." Then I asked:
"Who the hell was she?" He then told me that it was a friend's older sister.
So I ask: "So she's not related to you, and she doesn't own the car?" He then
says that I am correct. So I then tell him to call me back once he talks to
his parents. And roughly an hour later, he calls back and says:
"Ya, I talked to my parents, and they said get an estimate, and we'll pay for it."

I was so damn relieved when I heard those words.

Later all.
Stay safe.
Bye.

ps. I'll be putting pictures up asap.
