Angry hit and run

I guess I am just ranting this morning. My car got hit for the third time in my parking space at work yesterday. I have emailed our security and asked about installing cameras. This scrape is minor compared to the other two times, but it still lessens the car's value and appearance. I am just sick of people hitting, dinging and scratching up other people's property. You work hard to pay for your car and it hurts to have your purchase damaged especially when it's not your fault.

I've been getting a lot of minor scratches lately as well. I'm really starting to get pissed off. I just hope they come off when it finally warms up here and I can do my spring clay and polish.

I feel your pain man. I've had two shopping carts roll down a small hill and hit my car within the first two months of owning it!

At least yours probably doesn't look like this. At least with scratches, you can take some time and buff them out.

And then do what? There are no cameras, I'm sure 99% of the douches out there will just deny it.
