Hit & run last night
Re: Hit & run last night
I'll be getting my car towed tomorrow. It crawled underneath to get a better look of the damage. The driver side control arm is bent. Probably more damage under there that I can't see. I work at a auto repair shop. I might just get it towed to shop and have the claim adjuster come there. I think my car might be totaled. Thoughts? Thx.

Of course it's totaled. You work in a body shop right, then you need not ask this!
Sorry to see this

That is tragically messed up!
My guess - Either booze or texting...
Either way, it blows that they split.
Any cameras in the area?

The guy was caught. He and a friend came back to the location while I was talking to the police. As far as i know, the police he is being charged with hit & run. Not sure about DUI. Im due in court in April.BEJinFbk wrote:That is tragically messed up!

He got no license and not the owner of the vehicle.

Dang, so sorry to hear about this. Car is a beauty. Hopefully it'll live another day. I'd be surprised if an adjuster didn't call it totaled.
So when he came back to the location with a friend, did he fess up? Or was he somehow recognized?
