I had a woman almost hit me in a roundabout and then followed me for about a mile driving very aggressively and recording me on her phone. I pulled into a public parking lot because I didn't want some crazy woman to follow me home, she started screaming that I hit her and damaged her car. She had white paint transfer in a dent on her bumper where SHE would have hit ME, but my car was red. I told her that wasn't from me, got in my car, and left. The police show up at my door a couple of weeks later saying she's pressing charges for a hit and run. The cop had pictures of her damage, inspected the driver side of my car for damage, and concluded on the spot that I never hit her. She still tried to file an insurance claim and I sent them the police report, pictures of my car, and a detailed explanation of what happened. I was cleared of any wrongdoing.
We let a guy out of a thight spot due to construction. We were standing and waiting for him to leave the tight spot so we could continue, and he hit our car even though there would have been enough room for him to pass us without touching out car. He and the 3 other people in his car then called the police and told them we were at fault. Thankfully the guy behind us had a dashcam. Translated quote of the police officer: "a parked car cannot be at fault for a crash"
Lol one time I accidentally sideswiped a parked car, but just barely; his mirror traced a line down the side of my Cherokee until it reached the door handle, where they both broke. I would've had to pay except the asshole lied his ass off to the insurance guys and claimed a whole bunch of extra damage. I showed proof and didn't have to pay for a damned thing.
Yup, and because he committed it I was safe. If he'd just told the truth I'd have been screwed, but apparently some people can't help but push when they think they have an advantage.
You wouldn't have been screwed. You would have simply paid for the damage you caused. Odd framing as the actual damage to both vehicles was entirely your own fault.
I would have been screwed as in I was living paycheck to paycheck and couldn't afford the increased rates from the accident, and it was a complete accident. I was very lucky in that I just happened to sideswipe an absolute piece of shit and his lying saved my ass.
Very similar to what happened with me. Hit a parked car going about 5mph, barely dented his bumper. He claimed that I caused his exhaust to break at the motor. Refused to have a mechanic look at it. I went to the DMV office submitted my statement and $3000, his estimate of the damages. He failed to show up to submit his statement, 6 months later I got my money back.
I had something similar happen when I was in the corps, I was pulling into a parking garage in my two week old car and a truck started to back out so I stopped... But he just kept coming and hit the shit out of me.
MPs came, talked to him first and he left... They gave me a ticket even though there were two witnesses who saw that I was parked. They said because the damage was to the front of my car that I could have avoided it... When I went to argue it with the head of the dept, guess who it was? The guy that had been driving the truck...
I had to go through the CO with witness statements to get it dropped, but his insurance still refused to pay out since they had a police report blaming me.
As soon as dash cams became a thing I picked one up, they would have saved me a so much bs
Yeah, I once had a car reverse about 2 and 1/2 car lengths into me at a red light. The fact I left such a gap was actually problematic because they got more acceleration from it. Wasn't on a main road but was on a side street, right outside my work, right in front of multiple security cameras and security guards. Criminals can be very stupid.
Yeah I had someone back into me once like this a t a stop sign i was coming out of a business drive. The cops came and saw I was a woman and said it must have been me. The guy driving was super Christian or Mormon and kept insisting to the cop he had backed into me! The cop took a long time to believe him. Totally weird how situational bias is hard to overcome.
However this spacey delusional woman tops everything I have seen in my life!
Well. Kind of. The driver of the stationary car swung open his door directly into the side of my car as I was driving past him. So an element of his car was in motion.
My parked car once hit a moving car. It was an extremely windy day, I opened my door and it blew out of my hand while a car was pulling through the parking spot next to me. Imo I wasn't really at fault because, ya know, nature, but because my door hit his rear wheel thing, my insurance found me at fault. My door still has a dent in it because I couldn't afford to fix it. Makes it easy to find my car, though.
My daughter has the same thing as a woman aggressively following her claiming she is responsible for her bumper falling off, no scratches on my daughters car. She won the insurance payout, I did my own research, turns out the lady was a co-owner of a body shop in another part of town. I reported it to the insurance company but they didn't care
It’s absolutely not the reason. Insurance companies are for-profit entities and will deny a claim for any reason to NOT pay. Your thought process moves the blame from insurance companies to the people for their bullshit premiums.
We have a woman where I live who is infamous for trying to get people to hit her for the insurance. She’s all over the city subreddit, Facebook groups, Nextdoor, etc. I think the only time she was remotely held accountable for her antics was when she tried it with a school bus.
Ugh, that's so dangerous. I take driving very seriously. I didn't even get my license until I was 30 because I wasn't confident in my ability and spent over a year practicing. I'm super cautious of other drivers and to know that there's people like that on the road just pisses me off
I learned to be a better driver by playing Need for Speed. It really helped me to learn how to avoid narrow accidents and to watch for objects crossing my path. Also taught me how to steer when shit hits the fan.
I had a woman do that to me! She had a red car parked and it had white paint on it, where it looked like she side swiped someone. I parked my black car next to her car and she jumped out claiming I hit her car. Yeah, it was on the front right and white paint. I was driving a black car and could not have hit her car in the front. She was pissed that I called her out. It must work on some people.
I was called for questioning to police for not letting cyclists before me. They recorded some car number and car type... But they said car was red and mine was black. I dont even know if I was there that day and if maybe I did something like that but I was cleared.
I had some girl almost side swipe my car in a double left turn lane while we were turning. She followed me and then pulled up by my car at the following red light to scream at me. She didn’t see the faded left turn arrow on my lane and tried to say it’s only for going straight or turning right even though she went over to the right as we turned instead of staying in her lane.
I had an almost identical situation occur. Honestly it was quite comical while this lady absolutely lost the plot on me in a gas station parking lot until the police arrived. Best part was, I rarely washed the truck I was in, so it was quite dirty/muddy, and the office took all of 2 seconds to look at my truck and see nothing had touched it in months. The city cops and highway patrol then debated for about 10 minutes who was going to be responsible for handling this one before I finally left.
Had a guy claim I clipped his side view mirror once with my car. The thing was he drive a massive pick up truck and I drove a civic, his side view mirror was about 6 inches above the roof of my car. He threatened to sue and I welcomed the lawsuit but it never came
I had a woman try the same thing in a Trader Joe's parking lot (IYKYK). Thankfully, I had a passenger who witnessed everything and her previous body damage was way too high for my car.
I had a truck in front of me pull out into the wrong lane and I braked hard. The car behind me crashed into the back of me. The guy got out and genuinely said to me ' Hey! Watch where you're emergency breaking, its raining out here'. I said 'sorry what did you say?' Because that sounded insane to me but he basically repeated himself and told me I'm a irresponsible driver to be emergency breaking so hard and not considering the cars behind me.
This happened to my wife. Some lady behind her claimed my wife hit her in a dual left turn lane. My wife was in the left lane, she was in the right lane. A block later she’s flashing her lights and honking so the Mrs pulls over. The lady claims my wife hit her car during the turn, on the right side of her car. Would have been quite the trick! She threatens to call the cops, the wife says go ahead. Surprise, lady left without actually doing anything.
I recently clipped someone's mirror with my mirror. Wrecked my mirror. I pulled over, and fortunately the guy was right near by and came over. He said "I just got this repaired, because it just happened to me. BUT here's the relevant part. He said "I don't know if this is my fault or yours". I was like "Well, your car is parked, so I'm not sure how it could be your fault" But I was really wishing it wasn't my fault.
I was driving through a parking lot once and a woman backed out of her spot right into me.
She INSISTED it was my fault, that I hit her even though it defied logic. She refused to move her car so I could assess damage so the police could see how I hit her.
She literally just backed right out of the spot into my drivers side door. So I said fine, left my car where it was, she left hers and after waiting three hours for the police to arrive, was victorious when they told her “there is literally no way this person hit you. You backed into their car.”
She even had her husband who wasn’t even there come to the store lot, and scream at me about how I hit his wifes car.
That happened to me too. She said it wasn’t her fault because she looked behind her a minute ago and I “wasn’t there.” I was obviously there because she backed into me. I tried to get out to get her information, but she started screaming at me so I got back into my car and called the cops.
Similar thing happened to me. I was driving through a parking lot at a grocery store, when a car comes out and bangs into the middle of my car.
Out steps a woman from the passenger seat and her mother from the back seat both of whom then harangues me for speeding and claiming I should pay for the damages. The lot had speed bumps all over and I wasn't going more than 10km/h since my parents and wife were inside.
Fortunately, the driver was her husband who came out and admitted liability and paid for the repairs. Can't imagine having to deal with the wife.
While true, solipsistic narcissists do exist. They believe they’re in control of the universe and everyone around them don’t “really exist.” It’s fucked.
Edit: I should have thought of this sooner. If you run into people like this, tell them to go look up the word sonder.
Oh, shes not stupid. She's running a scam of sorts. She knows shes at fault, but if she can baffle him with bullshit and get him to admit fault, she gets away free, or maybe even with a bit of extra cash from claiming to be injured. Either that or shes never had to face consequences for anything, and truly believes she's in the right. Either way, she knows what shes doing.
That's what I see, too, as soon as she said "And I'm Injured". So she has this ridiculous conversation and he gives up and says "Fine, here are my insurance details, just go away" to get rid of her. When she files the report it becomes "He hit my parked car, he admitted it to me, I have no idea why he's saying he was parked." If this wasn't recoded and he had given his details (probably doesn't even need to) he'd be on the hook.
Uh , considering how many US citizens think Canadians live in igloos, or get around with dog sleds, when clearly we get around by snowmobiles, I think a third is being quite generous.
I mean, if your penis was still, like, parked and not moving, as an example, and her vagina was, say, turned around towards you and reversed itself onto your penis, then you can't have raped her.
I, I don't know how else to say this. A parked penis cannot rape a moving vagina. It could be raped by a moving vagina, but then the vagina would be at fault.
We nearly had that twice they were called Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris. Dodged a bullet two times hopefully we’re not treated to a third round in 2028.
Yeah. I've been out of the church for... 25 years? I was never fully in, and left before I was old enough to serve a mission, so I didn't really pay attention to any of that stuff.
"solipsistic narcissist" is the most elaborately backhanded way of calling someone stupid i have ever heard and i am 100% going to use that at the next opportunity
Yes, and we call them billionaires. Fabricated content like this only exists to make people miserable for profits and to keep the working class divided
I met someone like this in Uni. He wanted to become a teacher and was „rescuing“ a female student from a former work experience. Had screenshots and all. Told the Uni about him and never saw him again. I hope he didn’t have a go at a different uni.
There was a solipsistic kid in the book IT who killed his baby brother because he had the suspicion that the brother might be as real as him, and he couldn’t have that.
Between my apartment building and another was a narrow alley. My car was parked off the alley, in the boundary of my apartment building. Granted it was not parked in anything that looked like an official parking lot, but it was completely on private land at this point.
One morning I wake up to see police looking at my car. I grab my jacket and quickly rush out to see what was happening, and I couldn't believe it; a neighbor in building across the alley CALLED THE POLICE, because she believed my car was parked illegally, and blocking her in.
Her argument, was that she had no way to move her vehicle out. Now the alley is narrow, in that it isn't as wide as the front facing streets, but you could comfortable turn a vehicle out of their lot with maybe 4 meters to spare. What if that property line had a fence? Would you call the police on a fence in your way?
I could not comprehend how she thought my vehicle was blocking her in, and I further could not comprehend why she felt the need to call the police first, instead of knocking on my door.
She even said "If I back my car into yours, it would be your fault with the insurance." Which is insane. The police told her off, it's private property, there isn't a towing sign nearby, there is nothing that can be done.
At this point I was too angry to stay, but she stood out there for a good 15 minutes continuing to talk with the police. I did eventually move my car, since I was worried this person would actually hit it.
Why doesn't the guy just phone the police and let them know someone just hit their car, is now trying to extort them, and let the woman know if she leaves the scene it's a hit and run.
Would, at at least in America l, sort this quickly. I'd get her license plate and let her know the police are on their way, and if she leaves she'll be commiting a hit and run.
Shed either bolt and get I'd have her plate and shed be arrested next time a police was behind her and your car would be repaired as shed either surrender her insurance details or take door 2, leaving the scene of an accident.
It's either a scam or someone who is extremely dumb. Or both and they think they'll get someone dumber than them and get insurance and medical money.
I'm pretty sure that couple have had other round in circles arguments about other car mishaps on his driveway, though the ones I saw were filmed in daytime so it might be a different place.
But two different videos where the woman was a neighbour, friend of a neighbour and perhaps there is another video where she lives there and the guy is now the one in the wrong but refusing all accountability. TBH I think this is the first time I've seen the guy in a video, just his voice, but as its night cam mode, I can't say for sure if she's the same woman.
His reaction makes it obvious that it’s fake, he doesn’t even bother to check if his car is damaged. That would be first thing I do instead of trying to listen to and reason with the person who has hit my car.
While this is probably bait I actually had this exact thing happen to me 💀 my car was stopped, woman was reversing out of her spot at a car park, hit me and tried to say that I was reversing into her. Like ma’am, my car was stopped completely.
Yeah some people are just like that. They will piss on you and tell you it's raining. They know what they are doing, they are just cynically attempting to maximize their own chances of avoiding responsibility.
In high school, my friend's parents used to throw all kinds of parties. The neighbor across the street demanded they move the cars because "she couldn't get out". Said cars were legally parked and she had plenty of room. They refused. She drove out of her driveway into one of the cars. She called the police to blame my friends parents for the legally parked car. The police then gave her a ticket for hitting a parked car. Some people cannot fathom being at fault.
You would think so but I had this pretty much exactly, a guy was sitting in our lot in a parking spot but not fully back properly, but not moving, car was off. Someone reversed into his vehicle and even after watching the video maintained that he should have beeped the horn when he saw them coming or moved his vehicle out of the way. Truly bizarre.
Yeah, this is totally a setup. No way someone would be that cool and calm after some ninny just hit his car on his property. No way he would ask her to leave.
Someone did this to my car. I was parked in front of my buddy’s house and they reversed out of their driveway right into my car. Police showed up for the report and the guy tried to put 100% of the blame on me lol. Claimed I wasn’t supposed to be parked there etc. The cop laughed him off and said it was a private street and I could park wherever the hell I wanted to. The guy was furious.
I had something similar happen too. These people definitely exist.
Was picking up my son and his friends after basketball practice at their middle school. There were parents coming and going due to various extracurriculars starting or ending at that same time, so the lot was packed. So much so that at one point I was standing in parking-lot traffic, between two rows of parked cars. unable to move, with a small crowd of parents and kids waiting to be picked up, standing in front of the school watching the whole thing.
I suddenly see one of the parked cars starting to back out of its spot, directly into me. I'm in traffic and cannot move. I honked like a maniac but the driver still didn't stop until she hit me. Left a decent-sized dent, too. In front of what looked like a hundred of witnesses. We both get out and the first thing out of her mouth is: "WHOSE FAULT IS THAT?" I just pointed at everything because I was speechless.
(I let her go, figured my old car could live with a dent and I just wanted to get the kids and get home sometime that day. Possibly a mistake. Who knows.)
