Hit & Run

spike7451

Today,while going down the town I witnessed a hit & run,Basically between two row's of houses off a main road is a large,wide ally with resident parking at each side which leads to the rear of these property's.
The's also a path leading up to my estate at the end of the ally.
While coming down the path on my way to town,I witnessed a car driven by an OAP reverse into the rear drivers side of a parked car & drive off.What caught my attention was the high revving of the cars engine as he reversed & then drove off in the opposite direction.The's no way you could fail to miss hitting the parked car.
I took the runners registration & gave it & my details to the neighbor of the parked car who was'nt at home.
I've just given my statement to the PSNI who called round.
But I'm feeling a little guilty reporting it but I think I did the right thing.

Of course you did the right thing, well done on doing so. Many people would sadly pretend they saw nothing and look the other way.

True,
I suppose the guilt is cuz it's a pensioner.Mind you,he was driving an Audi & he hit a 10 (approx) year old Ford Fiesta.

Definatly did the right thing. I've reported a number of similar incidents (including a hit and run against a pedestrian! Guy ran the red and knocked a young lad over - then drove off)

Here, have a beer :beer:

!!!!!!!! to him, he's been around for 65 years and should know better. If he doesn't, he doesn't deserve to be driving.

You did the right thing and if it was my car he'd hit I'd be buying you a drink right now
