R56 I Got Hit

I Got Hit
I got clipped by a Hummer H2 today I was turning right to merge into traffic and this moving truck was making a righthand turn into a shopping center. I turn right and this bright red Hummer hauling some **** comes out from behing the moving truck and changes lanes into the one I'm turning into and smashes into me then swerves into the turning lane, waits a little then takes off!!!!!!!! The headlight got taken out, trim, front bumper, and something is scraping on the bottom of my car whenever I go over a bump. I didn't get his plates due to the airbag in my face

Is the car disabled after an air bag deployment? I'd assume so. Thats horrible. I'm glad you weren't hurt, and it's too bad no one got the plates. Report it to police and they will check with local body shops and dealers for a red H2. Even if a witness said "no damage" you never know. Eyewitnesses are notoriously inaccurate.

Don't feel bad. My 4 month old R56 was totalled in a parking lot by a drunk driver in a Ford F350. Basically sqaushed it.
To top it off, a peice of debris flew off a truck and hit my driver's door on the replacement clone I bought. Luckily I tracked him down and his insurance paid for it.

My wife was hit at an intersection by an illegal alien, this guy backs up, and hits her again in his get away. A near by car, chases him and gets his license number. He live in the next county. The police know his name and address and will not do anything because he live out of their county. I contacted the county where he lives with his name and number and they won't do anything because the accident didn't happen in their county.
I'm watching his address frequently for his car to show up.. so far nothing... I'm guessing the address is false.
Really sucks

Watch the Xenophobic comments. White, blue eyed, US born citizens also commit crimes too.
Crime and misbehavior are common to all nationalities, races, languages and cultures.
Sorry to hear about your accident. Classic hit and run. Get a police report and put a claim to your insurance. That is the best you can do.
At least, you are not hurt.

You are correct, I do not 'know', but he was driving a total junk car, had an hispanic name, did a hit and run, and no way to track where he actually is or where he may work. I have tried.
I actually don't care whether he is illegal or not, he is sharing the road with me (and you) and acted in a total foolish and dangerous manner. Luckily, my wife was not seriously hurt. I do not claim to be politically correct. I call it like I see it, even if I am proven wrong later. When he hits and runs like a chicken ****, he automatically looses all rights in my book. I am the victim and I'll call him anything I want to, in fact, illegal alien was one of the nicer terms I used to describe this POS.

I'd really like to know how you get from "illegal alien" to "Xenophobic comments", that is all. He cast a stone and shouldn't have, neither should you.

Whether the hit and run driver was legal or illegal makes no difference. The poster's (yo'sdad) car was hit and the driver ran. The poster was trying to politicize his post by inferring illegal aliens do this all the time and that since the hit and run driver looked Hispanic and had a Hispanic sounding name, he must be illegal . If you see a Chinese person, do you automatically think that person is an alien, illegal or legal? Hispanic, German, Russian, Indian? I don't, I know America is made up of people from all over the world, I don't assume anything.

And lets keep this one on topic (dealing with the aftermath of a hit and run and getting the MINI back to good as new shape) folks, I hate for either of the H&R victims to miss out some valuable information because the thread needs other action taken.

Let me set the record straight, then I'm not adding any more fuel to this thread. You guys can argue and comment all you want, but I'm out of this, sorry I ever posted anything at all.
I was not driving, it was my wife alone, I was no where near. Neither car had a airbag. Neither car was a hummer. She was hit once, and knocked into a ditch along with the car that hit her. The car that hit her then backed up and hit her again trying to get away and drove away.
The good samaritan who chased down the hit and run car got the license number. Neither police department; the county where the accident occurred, nor the county of the person the license plate was registered will do anything. They both tell me that hit and runs happen so frequently that they just don't have time nor resources to chase them down.
My insurance paid me for my car... but I lost a car (not my MINI), got a little bit of money, and it is over. I can't replace the car with the payout as all you know how that works.
I was never trying to make any political statements. I observed what I stated and I would still make a bet that if that person could be found, he would be an illegal alien. If that upsets you, sue me. But it doesn't really matter, a pos hit my wife and ran away. This is apparently what our country is becoming. Too many people don't seem to be willing to take responsibility for their actions. Just look at the CEOs of companies who bankrupt their companies then run with their golden parachutes leaving destitute families in their wake.
If anyone is more concerned that I mistakenly called this person an illegal alien than what he did and how it effected me, then that is your right. It is also my right to be pissed off as hell. I'll be quiet now and will no longer respond to this thread.

(edit, I just read the last post. Looks like I was a few minutes too late asking my question; was in the process of typing. Hope I get an answer even tho you said you won't post in this thread!)
