172. I was rear-ended by a guy who did not have license, insurance and got stiffed
Edited on Mon Nov-19-07 08:34 PM by Cronus Protagonist
The guy who rear-ended me got out of his car, could not speak a word of English, had no license, no ID, no registration, had his 1.5 year old kid in the passenger seat without a safety seat and gave me a cell phone number which he cut off by the time I got home.

While I was taking down his VIN number, the only and sole means to identify anyone related to the accident, a cop car drove by and I thought about flagging them down for a split second. I chose not to because I didn't want the little kid to lose her dad, her family car and to have a world of hurt trying to pay huge fines and such like. And I thought the guy just might, just might make good on the accident.

He not only got into the country illegally, which is one issue, but completly unrelated to his immigration status, he crashed into my car and I wouldn't have been at a loss if he were licensed and insured.

Now I have a $500 repair bill just so some nutjobs can feel happy about not letting the guy have car insurance because he sneaked into the country.

May the same thing happen to all the people on here who support these dumb-ass no-license campaigns of the xenophobic right wing fuckwits. Maybe then they'll change their minds.
