So, I leave the gun show today. I still had my piston unloaded and the tie on it. I had it on my but not loaded. So I go thru and intersection and am just about clear of it and I see a guy coming at me going pretty fast. He never tried to slow up or swerve to miss me. He plows into my left rear. Of course being in the bigger vehicle he kinda bounced off me.
So, I get out and go up to his car where there are two in the car and ask if okay, he says yeah, you guys ok? Said, yeah fine. I said, I'll call the cops. He says ok, but you know you ran a red light don't you? I said gee looked green to me. I thought my buddy was calling the cops. The guy says, it will be a while for them to come since no injuries, he said we are going to that Mcdonalds right there to eat and will wait for police there. What am I gonna do shoot em or fight em? I pull onto the sidewalk and my buddy asks if we are calling the cops. So I call. He knocked my bumper off and the quarter panel looked like it never got hit.
Cop comes and I say I have a CHL and am carrying. He says thanks for the heads up no problem. I tell him what happened and he asks where other car is. I say he went to eat. Cop says did you let him? I say what am I supposed to do, they looked honest. He says another car says they are not there, hit and run.
I did not get a ticket...at least not so far, but had to drive no more than 40 because he smacked my left rear tire and broke the control arm
But the policeman could not have been nicer. Thanks to the blue for treating me right during the process.
I know now I should have gotten his license number. I guess I am not used to getting into accidents.
