The one time I don't park in the boondocks
#26
Caught a county police officer slamming his door into my car which did similar if not worse damage. When I asked for his insurance card and ID as to exchange information, he laughed and zoomed off. As he was leaving the scene of an accident I instantly copied his name, (from memory) Lic. tag #, cruiser I.D. number along with the date, time and exact location of the incident. I called the local police station and reported the incident not forgetting to get the names of the officers who took the report. Even though they said they would send a car by to take my statement, they never did. Long story short, I finally was able to drag his *** in front of a judge who ordered him to compensate me in full for the repairs, and pay all legal fees and costs which amounted to a whopping $5,900.00... his downfall? Subpoenaed GPS and other records placed his car right next to mine at the exact time and place along with traces of my paint all over his cruisers door (which was still bent from the hit. He didn't care to clean it off. Guess he thought no one would pursue him. He thought wrong! (Funny note: Somehow the producers of Judge Brown found out about my case and called to ask if I would try the case on TV... I declined.)

The female judge did reprimand the officer, stating, "by leaving the scene of an accident that you caused, by putting the plaintiff through hell to settle his claim, you and your fellow officers who aided in the cover-up have disgraced the uniform you wear and the department you serve." I'll never forget it. It took this clown 6 months to pay up.

Good. Glad you got Justice. Most would not be so lucky unfortunately.
Their side of the insurance assumed liability so they paid up. Dropping off the car tomorrow for the fix.

Make sure the shop can tint match the paint using a spectrometer.... otherwise you will have issues.
