Dear spineless coward...
 

...with the white car that decided to total my SVX last night in the Silver Legacy parking garage.

Sure, you probably didn't intentionally decide to be a totally inept retard of a driver and purposely drag your right front bumper across my left rear bumper, wheel, tire, and fender while trying to jam your car into the spot next to me clearly labeled "compact". But by not leaving me your contact info and running from the scene, you're basically on par with the common dickless vandal in my book.

Next time, man up and take responsibility for your ineptitude, you fucking coward. Certainly your insurance would be able to fix my car because it was your fault... but I can pretty much guarantee my insurance will just total out my car even if the damage is only a few hundred dollars, what with my SVX booking so low in value.

So since I'll probably have to fix this out-of-pocket, thanks a ton for stealing a wad of cash from me you little bitch. I hope some other vandal smashes all the windows out of what ever pile of shit you drive, though you'll likely just tape trash bags up and soldier on because clearly you don't seem to give two shits about respect for property or you would have a) not run like a little bitch after hitting me, or b) probably would have learned to drive less like a reckless douche and not have hit me in the first place.

Signed,

The guy that's going to fuck you in small claims court if the Silver Legacy happens to have video from the parking garage.

Oh Man, I'm sorry Scott. Hopefully there is some video. wow.

Holy shit dude. I fucking hate people. Sorry Scott.

Oh no, Scott. I hope there IS video. In the meantime, we're keeping our eyes open for a car with a dented in right bumper -- color left behind? Also, put one of those ads in the paper or CL - asking for any witnesses?

Oh man that sucks! Sorry. Best of luck with getting video.

If there was not video of the accident there should at least be video of him entering/leaving the garage. :mad:

Terrible situation man, sorry. Hope they find that fucker.

That sucks so bad. People are the worst...

I know they fucked over the wrong guy though. Sperry will stick it to them if it's at all possible.

Well, Silver Legacy security told me they have video of all the parking garage floors and they save them for around 2 weeks. But they won't release it without a subpoena. The guy suggested that I contact my insurance company and have them attempt to sort it out... :unamused:.

The problem is that I bet I'll have to file a claim w/ AllState before they would attempt to research it. My goal was really to leave my insurance totally out of the loop and got straight to the dipshit that hit me's insurance. Does anyone know if an incident like this is covered under comprehensive, or is this a collision?

It will be in Allstate's interest to get the spineless coward to pay. Hopefully this means that they take care of everything for you with no negative side effects...

Maybe just hire a lawyer?

seems to me like you should be able to do this with out your insurance company. or at least a visit to the country clerks office this week on lunch break (today if possible) would be in your best interest.

Uber Shitty.. at least it sounds like you have a few good options for recourse .

insurance lead efforts,
self lead claims court
lawyer up.

Maybe get an estimate to fix everything asap, if its over 5K i think that's over the small claims limit.

also maybe just filing a police report we cause the police to subpeona the tape , if they go to investigate a hit and run.

Get the cops to charge him with that, AND sue him in claims court.

Unfortunately, I think this situation is far too commonly solved with "just file a claim with your insurance, that's what it's for" for anyone to be interested in helping me out with these more complicated plots. Really, if this had been any car but my SVX that's worth so much more to me than the insurance value, I would just claim it on my insurance... I just don't want it totaled out over what's really just minor cosmetic damage.

Certainly, I'm not interested in hiring a lawyer. The cost of a lawyer just to get the video subpoenaed is probably more than the cost of the repair, and I have no guarantee I'd be able to get the license of the car that hit me off the video in the first place.

What color is your car again?

what color(s) were left behind?

so damage to their front right (or maybe their left rear if they tried backing in) ?

Svx is red. The car that hit me is either white or silver.

Just tell them you have reason to believe the person was attempting to shoot a judge from the back of his car. That should get things moving.

i think i saw your car in the silver parking garage on saturday if you where there if that was you, clean car man and sorry to hear what happend

Did you go to see Daniel Tosh too?

Also... what color is your car? :P

So let them total it out and just buy it back? Then you will get your money and the car.

A clean title on that car is worth more than the $1000 I'd probably get from having it totaled out.

With a clean title, I can probably sell the car for 6 or 7 grand as long as I was patient on waiting for an SVX enthusiast to buy it. With a salvage title, I'd be lucky to sell it for $2000. Plus, if it ever really got wrecked in the future, I'd get nothing for the car. I think I'd rather pay out of pocket to fix it now, than lose out on a couple of grand in the future if it actually got totaled.

Plus, the damage isn't really that bad. I took a better look at it today in the sunlight. It's more of a scuff than real paint/body damage. Mostly this thread is me bitching about people who don't respect other's property and take responsibility for their actions. The damage probably isn't enough to total the car, even with it's low book value.

I'm gonna take some pictures of the damage, then try to buff it out... As long as there's no damage to the wheel, the rest may be repairable enough with touch-up paint to get me by until I can't stand the sand damage on the front end and repaint the car again. The only shitty thing is that I really figured the next time I was going to drop money on body work/paint, I'd be fixing the 4 year old damaged fender/bumper on the WRX. :mad:

i have a sedona red wagon i had to park on the top and i noticed about 20 subies while making my way to the top,alot from cali

Ask the sec. supervisor for video...cameras all over parking garage.

Yeah, that's what the guy I talked to said. But he wouldn't release the video "without a subpoena". My guess is they probably would release it to an insurance company though, which is why he told me to file with my insurance and have them call the casino.

So how was the show? I really like Tosh.O. I'm supposed to see him in Santa Rosa next month I think.

It was pretty decent. A lot better than the last big-name show I was which was Dave Chappelle that got ruined by hecklers that wouldn't stop yelling "I'm rick James, Bitch!". Tosh's opening act was some dude named Jasper, who was actually pretty funny too.

That sucks Scott, good luck.

Personally I would go above and beyond in order to exact my vengeance on such an asshole.

Call the Silver Legacy pretending to be from the insurance company and ask for the tape, or bribe someone from your insurance company. What about the RPD, someone there is bound to be on the take. I wonder what format it's in?

I just filled out an application on the Silver Lagacy's website. If I get an interview I'll try to gain access to the security offices, or at least get a lay out of the restricted area, we can proceed further with more information. I need a pen cam. PM me the details about where the car was parked, and the time frame.

Revolution!

Zatoichi Vengeance FTW!

j/k

But -- it's free to write something in Craigslist Rants and I think there are other websites -- perhaps getting more sets of eyes out for this creep.

"Seeking information or witnesses: Red Subaru SVX at the Silver Legacy parking lot on 7/10/10 was sideswiped in its parking space. Appears to be white or silver paint left behind, and culprit car may show damage on left front bumper. Please respond if you saw, or know about this incident."

Hit-and-runners should NOT get away with it.

You would also have to post pictures so that people actually know what an SVX looks like. I think this calls for a .gif reenactment.

Can you just ask him to review the tape and look for a license plate on the car that hit you? That way he can at least tell you if it's worth going through the hassle of trying to get it.

Ouch, that sucks dude. :| Good luck.

Oh man, craps.

I would definitely see if the SL Sec. people would work with you more. Like JC's suggestion. Sometimes it is a matter of the right approach to the right supervisor.

Sorry to hear Scott. That sucks.

Scott,

If you have some questions as to how insurance would handle it, let me know. First off, it would be considered collision. Secondly, it would be a Not-At-Fault accident and your rate would not be affected.

Basically, you would just have to fork up your collision deductible and the rest would be fixed with no damage to your insurance.

But hit me up if you want to talk about it some more. If you remember, my Suby was hit-and-run in the old 4th turn parking lot during one of the meets. I just had to pay my collision deductible and it was all fixed.

Dude, That sucks. I don't know if it is too late now, but call the cops. In hit and run with property damage, they should be able to get tapes for their investigation.

What I have learned in last couple of years is to _always_ call the cops in any sort of accident, even if there is no apparent damage.

(I had a woman rear-end my wrx, there was not very much damage so we didn't call cops, just exchange insurance. After two conversations with her insurance regarding fixing my car, she began to claim it was _my_ fault she _rear ended_ ME! :mad: If the cops had been there, they would have assigned fault on the police report, and I would have been able to have her fix my bumper... Always call the cops!)

Well, the damage isn't very noticeable... in fact, just the rain on the car has washed away most of the evidence it was hit. So, I'm not bothering to follow through with this. I just don't care enough to fight the fight and be angry over it until it's repaired. I've got enough drama in my life with plain old day-to-day nonsense.

Now, if the paint job Gilson's did a few years back were holding up well, then I'd probably sing a different tune... but as it is, the whole front-end of the car needs paint because it's already sandblasted off. Getting the bumper and fender touched up if/when I ever get around to getting the rest of the paint done won't be all that much more.
