I did check to see if the security cameras caught anything. There was a hotel with a camera right on my car BUT they said it has been broken for the last month. There wasn't any parts from a broken lense. Just a nice stripe of white paint running the length of the door.

That's the funny thing. i do exactly the same thing!!! it is a good couple of minute walk to my car no matter where i go. when i parked it the closest car was about 500 feet away. I am going into this restraunt with my friend and he says why don't you park your car closer. I tell him it is so nobody dings/scratches/nicks/hits my car. We come out and bam!!!

Not sure if you could of "kinda" chase him to get his tags numbers. I'm sure even if it's not your fault, your premium will increase due to your insurance paying it.

just click on the paper clip icon at the top of your menu bar when you hit "post reply" and attach your pic.

it's just like attaching pics to an email.

Would a hit and run be considered "Uninsured"?
