[Entaille]

I am checking the mail about 50 feet away from my wife who is sitting in her car. a new VW passat without license plates backs into her car cutting the paint way too deep, about 4 inchs long, and rubbing a mark about 8 inches long that is buffable.

the ladies son tells my wife that he can buff it out and that they live in X building and point to it. my wife just says okay, not a big deal, we'll deal with it later.

she doesn't ask for ID, doesn't ask for insurance info, doesn't ask for a name, doesn't ask for a unit number.. nothing, just total blind faith in them. doesn't wave me over, doesn't call me over, just lets them leave. I am really aggravated how care free and passive she was over this.

she doesn't seem to care about her car (even though she paid 25k for it?), but I sure do, and I've been around the block.. I know she at least needs a bumper respray after looking at the damage. now it will be up to me to to locate these people, get them to own up to it, and get them to actually pay for a respray instead of wasting our time trying to let some amateur buff something that is cut 1mm deep. no insurance claim to fall back on, nothing, he said she said at this point :/

just had to vent, was already a bad/long day at work :]
