I was at the bank yesterday, and pull up to the window and the lady who just pulled away decided to back up to the window without looking. She barely tapped me, not enough damage to get the mtech that I was hoping to get. I will have the body shop paint an acs rep spoiler while they have the paint out though, so not all bad.

That sucks indeed. The least she could have done is hit you hard enough to buy you the Mtech.

Some people have no clue. Why would she back up without looking? How about if there was a kid walking behind her car? Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you will get that taken care of to your liking.

That is horrible. Just her blatant disregard for everything is dangerous. I hate when people do not pay attention. I look around like a madman everytime I inch in reverse forward or however. I agree...there could have been a kid there.

What's the problem with a 5'0" woman with only 1 child driving a Ford Excursion?

Is the child trapped under the trailer hitch?
