And I don't like people trashing my things that I work hard for.....and you were not there to see what happened....there were others who came up to me and were ready to be my witness should I need one-which I told them thanks but no thanks. He was trying to leave without even getting out to see if he did any damage. And I knew it was my car before I turned around as there were no other cars parked in that area of the lot.

I'm tired of punks on cell phones who can't drive and talk at the same time, no matter how young or old they are. This guy couldn't even drive in a parking lot and talk on his cell at the same time.

Not like he was some "old man" either. Very fit for early 60's.

Now I'm going, be-rate me all you want. I'm not hijacking this thread any longer. And I don't even know why I bother with this forum, I see some of the stupidest questions being asked sometimes.

So there.

I'm sorry but you really need to chill out.
A car in the end is just a machine, it's not worth trying to assault someone over when he really didn't even do anything.

My car is barely even 3 years old and it's already been hit twice.
The first time was by some lady in a Jetta who decided it would be a good idea to use the middle left turning lane as a merging lane to turn right (hate it when people do that), I got some of her paint on my car and ended up with a little ding. Nobody was hurt, no harm done.

Second time was by my girlfriend's father who backed up his Audi A4 into the passenger's side of my car.
He caused over 1,600 dollars in damage, and yeah I was upset but I was calm about it and he paid for the damage and in the end nobody was hurt and it was fixed.

And you know what? I gained a lot of respect because I was calm and cool about it, if all I did was blow up on him and tell him what a futhermucker he is and throw him up against his car then he'd hate me and think i'm some asshole.

Above all that, i'm only 20 years old and I think i'm setting a better example then someone who is more then double my age.

Now granted, I don't care for people who talk on their phones while driving. I say either talk on the phone or drive the car. But still, chillax a bit.
I don't blame you for acting the way you did, but I think you could have handled it differently.

Anyways. Sorry for the hijack again.
