Default Good semaritan rear ends my truck

Quick story....
So I come back from grocery shopping and there is a guy waiting at my truck.
He tells me that someone hit my truck but they left a note and drove away.
He wasnt sure if the info left was the truth....so he gave me the licence number and car make/model.
I say thank-you very much for helping and we part ways.
I call the number on the note left on my windshield and lo and behold it's a correct number.
She seemed very young and very appologetic and said she will call her insurance company tomorrow.
The damage to her lil car is far worse than my dented fender because she also ran through my camper belly bar which ripped her front end open.
I say thank you for being so kind....THE END

Until tomorrow

Bad day with a nice twist.

Nice to hear about honest people.

I watched a guy at Canadian tire a couple days ago hit someones truck. Pulling forward, bumped it, well enough I could see the whole truck move. He just drove away. Little did he know I got his plate and I gave it to the lady who owned the truck when she came out.

I have no time for people who hit and run. I dinged a guys bumper once at Iga. Put one little scratch on the paint. Waited for an hour for him to come out. When I showed him what I did he said don't worry about it. It's an older truck and the fact you waited for me says a lot about ya. Ended up having a good chat about fishing with the guy.
