Some moron hit my Evo tonight...

Some moron backed right into the front of my Evo tonight...I was following him into my street, and he stopped suddenly, so I stopped, and then this moron put his car into reverse and just backed down the hill right into me! I laid on the horn, but he just kept coming...BANG! I got out and said, "What the hell do you think you're doing???" He started apologizing profusely. Fortunately, it looks like he only cracked my front license plate frame. I got all his info, so if I have to pay for anything, his insurance is getting dinged for it...I can probably get a new frame for nothing at the dealer, but I got his info just in case.

Moron...

So if another car was behind you, would you still put it in reverse?

Make sure you take the car to a body shop there is alot more behind the bumper that can be messed up even without cosmetic damage.

Naah...he didn't hit me THAT hard...it was more of a bump than a crash...it didn't even bend the screen...I'm just pissed off at his stupidity...but relieved that my car didn't get ****ed up!

Be careful. I had someone back into me once in a similiar situation like yours. The damage included a cracked headlight, dented hood and fender. All I got down was his info, didn't call the police because he said he would take all responsibility and after I reported it to the insurance that same day guess what happened? He counter-sued me and neither side won...
