Bad driver hits me

ARGH! I was on my way home last evening about 4:30pm, I me going down a road and this guy pulls out from my left cutting it close and goes in the left lane and then to the right lane (my lane) as if he was making a farm turn. No signal. So I'm thinking this is a bad driver, my instincts are up. Go about a 1/4 mile where the intersection that I want to turn at is. I put my signal on and move to the right turn lane, he is in the lane I was in as if he is going straight. All of a sudden I see his car cutting me off - as I slam on the brakes and honk my horn and he keeps coming. He is tring to turn into a gas station on the corner - and does so by starting his turn in the next lane. I get out, start looking at my car an I'm like it looks like just the bumber is broken...no, the left turn signal, left fender scraped, and this is where I get mad, the hood has a tiny crack in it's paint on the corner. NOT HAPPY. The kid gets a ticket. I was bitting my lip and
hid my displeasure.

But it's just a waste of time now, as my body shop is 60miles away - cause I only use Glasurit paint.

What's funny is I guess I look old cause the kid (17) calls me sir. I'm only 21.

He had 2 other kids with him, and they said he looked. My car is proof he didn't.

All I can say is that If I hadn't been paying attention my whole front would have had it.

So, I hope this doesn't happen again like it has so many times with Alon.

Later,
Shaun
