So What is he thinking?
So I get home from work and let the furry beast out. After his usual greatings he goes off to sniff and pee on things of interest in the yard. I go inside and start to read my emails. I turn on the camera system (4 camera system, two front yard two back, the feed rotates between cameras, it dosen't record) and I see a truck backing into a spot in front of mine. He backs up until his huge trailer hitch is almost touching the front of my truck and then the camera switches feed to the next camera. I cycle it back to the right camera and his truck is pulled forward.
The phone then rings. It's my neibour. She asks if I know the guy with the green truck out front that just hit my truck? I say no and off I go outside. I get there in time to see a fat 70 year old bald guy going into the neibours yard across the street. Before I can say anything he's inside their house.
I go look at my truck and there is a scuff mark on the front vallance which lines up perfectly where his trailer hitch is.
Not major damage but enough that you can notice it.
I go inside to get my camera. Take pics of the trucks and the damage.
I write a note that says "When you back up and hit another car you never know who's watching. You were caught on video and a neibour saw you. Learn to drive"
and I put it on his windshield.
I go back in and I'm watching the video feed and I see him come out and take the note off his windshield. Read it. He looks at my house and crumples the note and walks back inside.
I call the cops. They tell me until he actually leaves the scene with out exchanging info he really has not broken the law.
So I wait.
4.5 hrs goes by and I see the lights on his truck come on. By the time I get outside he's gone,
Now it's hit and run (failure to exchange particulars).
So tomorrow I get to go make a police report and he will be charged. His insurance and licence will go up & what ever the fine will be.
