    This happened when my husband was parking. He slightly bumped into this guys bumper as often happens when you are parking.

    My husband said there was definitely nothing that he could see and he inspected the car. The guy thought there was a "scratch" and apparently said he'd take it to his garage to see if it needed painting over.

    My husband is a) not from this country and b) naive. He was also a little scared of this guy and thought that giving him the details would calm him down. He believed that giving him his insurance details does not mean he is claiming he liable.

    Oh well. I guess that is another god knows how much down the drain :rolleyes:.

    FFFFFFFFFFF's sake, It doesn't to me, but then I can drive.

    How can you say that, are you one of the folks that thing it is ok to nudge a couple of cars out of the way so that you have room to park.

    I was going to say; "Send him home before he gets locked up or cripples someone", but I won't
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed

    Maybe her husband is French. Bumping is almost obligatory there when you are parking. I've sat in cafes and seen people make a space bigger by bashing the cars either side out of the way!!!
