Default Re: hit and runs

This doesn't surprise me at all. I saw someone back into a car in a Costco parking lot last November. It was a significant hit. I was in my car in a position where the guy could not see me. I watched him get out and look around. He went back to his car and jotted something down. He put what looked like a business card in the wiper blade of the car he hit and drove away. I got out of my car and as I passed the vehicle on the way into the store I looked at the note. It was a plain White piece of paper with nothing written on it. I didn't get the guy's plate because he left the parking area in the opposite direction. I left my business card in the wiper blade with a note for the owner to call me. The owner did call and I gave him the suspect description and vehicle description. Without a plate though, prosecution will be impossible. I wish I would have walked past the cars before the guy left, that way I would have had plate info. His actions seemed pretty legit to me at the time, but the way he looked around after the collision gave me pause as I thought about it more. Oh well...next time!
