Default Had an accident, what a joke

Ok so I thought I would share this with you guys, I thought it was rather amusing anyway.

I work occasionally as a Pizza delivery driver for StAlbans Dominos, and last night as I was waiting to turn right and park infront of the store, some guy reverses out, no idea I was waiting and clips my rear driver side corner. Im sitting there in my car saying something like 'What are you doing !' when I look over to the guy and his mate, we were looking at eachother when they just take off down the road. So I take down his rego as I go to park my car.

Anyway, I get out of the car my manager comes asking if they hit me, he takes a look and starts laughing. I was pretty ticked off so I ask him what was so funny, he tells me that guy had just applied for a job, giving all his details in the process. Now seriously how stupid can you get...

Ok so I call the police, this was about 10pm. They say they will come down soon, I'm waiting for 2 hours when I decide to call and ask where they are since I'm still technically 'at work'. I find out there is no record of my call...? So I make another claim of the accident and apparently someone will come down soon. So as I'm once more waiting, I get a call, from the Police. The lady says they can't send someone down since no one is at the scene of the accident, I have to go to the police station in Keilor and tell them in person.

So I go down there after work with my boss. I get there and they tell me off for leaving the scene of an accident....Righto...After that they call the guy up. He denies any knowledge, but suddenly remembers after they threaten to arrest him. But now his mate was driving the car....in the meantime the other officer checks the number plates, and apparently they don't exist. And to top it off his license has been cancelled.

After a few minutes the guy hangs up on the Constable. So she calls him back, and he hangs up again...

Eventually they said I could go and they going to charge him with something tomorrow. I called insurance today they handled it, so that's OK.

There really are soom loonies out there, it's not enough if you drive carefully you also need to watch out for their stupidity. What can you do.
Rant off :
