• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

OMG... some people!!!!

I was pulling into a parking spot at Home Depot, and some idiot while on his phone, runs into the back of a parked car, as he wa pulling into his parking spot. He gets out and starts walking towards the store. I asked him if he was going to leave a note for the owner of the car he just ran into. He screamed at me to mind my own business. I walked to the back to his truck to take a picture of his plate#, and he rushes me and attempts to knock my phone from my hand, but I moved in time. He's now in my face screaming at me telling me he's going to kick my a$$. I laughed in his face as I call the police. Guy left before cops got there, but I'm sure his day is going to get worse once the police catch up to him. The owner of the car worked there, and was very thankful I was there and turned him in. There was significant scratching and gouges in the bumper of her car.

Nice job!!!
I wish more people were like you and stood up to people like that
 
Good for you for what you did. Threatening bodily harm is probably a worse crime than the hit and run. I hope they throw the book at him.
 
Hi mowin,

Re: Guy left before cops got there, but I'm sure his day is going to get worse once the police catch up to him.

The laws in each state vary. Here, private party parking lots will not get anyone a ticket. That's because it is private property.

And good for you for standing up to help the crunchee.

Good for you . . . they may not be able to ticket him for the accident, but his insurance company will have to pony up for the damages to the other person's car . . . and, depending on your state, his attempt to knock the phone from your hand could cause him to be charged with assault . . .
 
He even went and took a picture of my plate# and said "how do you like it". Told him if he would have asked nicely, I would have stood by my truck for the pic. Police didnt say if he could get a ticket in HD's parking lot for being on his phone. I did mention to them he took pic of my plate#, and if any mischief occurs on my property, he would be the one to contact.
 
You handled it like a Pro! :clap: :2thumbs:
Leaving the scene of an accident, is a pretty major infraction... I hope that they nail him to the wall for it! :gaah:

HOWEVER THIS PROBABLY APPLIES

Jerry Baumchen[/QUOTE....................But I think regarding Motor Veh. laws and Regs , once you invite / allow the public free access to the property it is then considered a " PUBLIC HIGHWAY "..........If you are correct then anyone could get rip roaring drunk and drive around in that parking lot with nothing to fear from the POLICE....no DUI /DWI, do you really think that is the case ???????...............just saying .....Mike :thumbup:
 
Well done..!!

probably nit the first time he has done this. Just walking off to shop would indicate this. Hope this time proves to be the one that nails him down. Thanks to you this will happen...:2thumbs: thanks...
 
Good Move! On behalf of all those who've had their cars damaged in parking lots with the offender leaving the scene ----THANK YOU!!
 
"Leaving the Scene of An Accident"; they don't care where it happened... you run, and they've got you! :shocked:
At least that's how it works here in Noo-Yawk! :D
