Sadly it may have only been because people saw them doing it and then they had no choice. You just never know these days. Not one person has done that when they hit my car and I only ever caught 1 in the act.

In the note, they said it had happend to them and the person drove off, so they have done the right thing as they know how it feels.They have just called and sound genuinely sorry.

Do you remember the story were the bloke returned to his expensive new car to find it smashed and a note, saying the people watching think I am leaving my details but I cant afford this, you can afford this car so you can afford to fix it.. bye

I was waiting for my xgirlfriend when I crazy drunk women came out of the pub got into her car and drove directly backwards as fast as she could right into the side of me.... then she drove forwards, slammed it into reverse and did the same again!

She then pulled off, pulled into a disabled bay and fell asleep at the wheel!! I went over to her and told her she just drove into me twice.. She had no idea!
Police pulled up and I told them that she may be a little drunk. It took them 10mins to wake her up...

I was due to sell the car the next day.... It was a crappy 1.2 nova... Had you thinking it was my scoob for a second!

True story though!! Funny! But true!
