[Xist]

I was supposed to drive 2 hours and see 6 clients on Friday, on top of everything else, and as I left town another driver clipped my back bumper.

I hate that any of my cars get damaged further, but this car was already totaled, and already has visible damage.

As much as I wanted the idiot to fix my bumper, I just wanted to be on-time for work.

Clearly he intentionally hit my car because he immediately called the cops and claimed that I hit him.

Aside from making me over half an hour late for my first clients I don't think that anything will come out of it, which isn't nearly as satisfying as having a jerk fix the damage he did and get in trouble for filing a false report, but he was trying to get me charged, and have my insurance fix up his beater.

The bizarre thing is that he claimed that I passed him in the fast lane. No, he was in the inside lane as we turned left and I passed him on the right. The officer told someone on the phone that he totally saw where I hit the other driver and had me look at the damage that SUV did.

"Sir, someone in an SUV tried to turn left in front of me on November 15th, shattered that headlight, and damaged the bumper, hood, and the core support. Do you want to see pictures?"
"Did you file a report?"
"Yes Sir."
"What about these barely noticeable scuffs on your passenger side?"
"This is an old car with scuffs all over. All of those were already there when I bought the car less than a year ago and the guy hit me on the driver's side. Any damage would be there."

He never looked at the driver's side.

There is a clear scuff there, but not the end of the world.

He said an officer may call me back.

At what point can I resume ignoring my phone?
