High school drivers suck

My first thought was thinking of the reality they were born into, and the preceding shit they didn't experience.

But then I realized that I can't talk, because I didn't see the moon launch. My parents didn't experience war rations. My grandparents... hell I don't know. They saw everything. From horses and outhouses to "you've got mail." That's an amazing life.

 

Also during school that day I noticed a white 4Runner with color matched white bumpers parked next to me. The paint marks match up with my bumper height. It was a 3rd gen 4 runner.

 

OP- since it was most likely another student- walk around the lot looking for the other vehicle some school day during break - you might find the matching RP.

 

Oh just you wait. In 50 years we’ll have stories to tell… so many stories that the grandkids won’t believe we daily drove ICE cars, and then we’ll be asked about the “insert banned topic” incessantly. You’re saying the *********?

I see you mentioned the Dean previously. Remember, this is a hit and run. Paint can be matched from the culprits vehicle to the flecks on your truck. Cameras, etc. Will the cops care? Who knows. But it is well within your right to file a police report, and many will say that you most definitely should file a report.

 

That’s the plan.

 

I did not notice the large dent until the day after it happened. I called the police to file a report, and they said it was too late to send an officer out. At that point I was already home, and had slept through the night. I completed the report on the highway patrol website and mailed it to where it told me to. That will take time though

 

Issue with not filing a report on the spot is that there is now doubt about where it happened. The cops won’t be running paint samples or anything crazy, so unless you have camera footage from the school or a confession from the culprit, there is a reasonable chance you are out of luck.

Personally I wouldn’t let it go easily. Follow up with school, follow up with that police report. But don’t get your hopes up for nailing the person who did this.

Life ain’t fair.

 

Sorry if it wasn’t clear but I am a fellow high school driver. The faculty do have their own parking lot. Also love the ford truck for your kids.

 

Haha I ain’t letting this go easy. Hitting my car and not leaving a note is not cool. I will down anything in my power to track them down.

 

That’s my front lawn not the parking lot lol

 

Yeah I know. Just kinda bummed about this happening

 

Not to lecture, but don’t run this to the ends of the earth. Yes try to track them down. But don’t burn any bridges or do anything stupid in the meantime. We pay for insurance for a reason.

 

I feel like 15 y/o you’s “love tap” and my definition of “love tap” are vastly different

 

I may have exaggerated with what I said. I just want to find out who it was, since the go to my school.

 

My bad man. Didn’t take a pic in the parking lot. Didn’t notice it until the next morning. That’s the only pic of the dent that I have
