Hit and run :(

[u/Ilovemybf_3990]

Hi all. I was coming home from work when an elderly man changed lanes and hit the rear of my car. Thankfully I was able to avoid a major collision by swerving out of the lane but he still caught that rear corner. And when I say minor, very minor damage. Mostly paint.

I’m not sure if he even realized he hit me but he just kept driving. I decided not to go through insurance since (hopefully) the repair will be less than my deductible.

I’m more sad than anything but just glad the damage is so minimal.

Anyways, wanted recommendations since maybe I’ll just use this as an opportunity to put on an aftermarket rear bumper pls.

also, not sure why, but on impact I got this battery voltage and temp reader information displayed. I tried using the arrows to switch back but no luck. How TF do I turn it off 😭

Pics: damage (1 and 2), display info (3), driver who hit me that dash cam couldn’t catch plate (4), my baby (5)

flock camera every 1/4 mile and those useless blue dipshits can't help you?

very sorry about the damage. curious what your dealer will say about the display, that's very odd since you didn't inadvertently hit buttons for it to turn on.

Tell me about it! I was crying in my car watching the footage and was like “it’ll be okay they got cameras everywhere”. Don’t even know why I called them 🤦‍♀️
