Some young mexican guy came flying around the corner at (least) 30+mph and T-boned us about 15 feet sideways. Thankfully the front wheel took most of it.
He stands there ignoring us (kinda in a stupor) until security shows up and says there's nothing they can do because it's private property. "Call your insurance company". Takes his info and lets him go.
Guy takes some papers out of the glove box, a stroller out of the back seat, and walks away.
We reap(or mabye only some of us) what we sow.

And your friend believed the security guard?? Did he bear a family resemblence to the drunk? Jeeesus.......
Not sure what country you guys are from, but the notion that the police in the U.S.A. have no jurisdiction on private property is beyond laughable. Like if I kill someone, and it's in my house, (private property), no problem?
Too late for this case I guess, but for anyone else reading this, call the freaking police if you are ever smashed into by a speeding car driven by a drunk no matter where it occurs.
