Door ding

[lee]

Ok so I'm sitting in my car waiting on my gf to get off work because her car went to the shop because the ac compressor locked up, and this guy gets out of his Benz an hits my car , I'm in shock like did that just happen so I get out to look as he's walking away and he just says sorry. I didn't even know what to do my first instinct was to beat his ass but from prior experince that's more expensive than the ding, I just don't know what to think I'm still sitting here next to his car contimplating something childish

Wait for him to come back and tell him you want him to pay for it!

I don't have an answer, but damaging someone elses car out of spite is a dick move no matter what....

If it were 10 degrees like it was here, you could get great satisfaction by pouring water in the seals of his doors

It's harmless, gives you great satisfaction that they will have to struggle to open their door, and could have happened naturally.

A similar situation happened to me before. The guy living in the apartment below me parked his van next to my new car (had it about 1 month) (not the camaro but another car) I notice it and ask the guy to pay. He said he did not do it, told him I'm calling cops, he laughs and closes the door. So, I call the cops. Cops come make him come out and open his door dent matches the spot and there is paint transfer. The guy ends up getting a ticket for leaving the scene of the accident as well as not having a license or insurance. He also ended up paying for the repair.

So, my advice to you would be, immediately call the cops, report the "accident" and the fact that the guy just walks off. Bet he'll be more careful the next time.

Well I wanted to damage his ride but it's expected I've always had nice things and there's always gonna be haters, one time had a f250 on 40's and walked out someone had punched the miror and shattered it and there was kiss prints with lipstick ,

The guy drives a Mercedes and has no respect for cars or other peoples property. He belongs in a used Yugo.

That is by far the best way to handle it. I would've gotten much more satisfaction out of that than dinging his door back (which, yes, is a very dick move).

It's people like him that deserve to have their cars keyed. People who have no care for others properties deserve the worst. Just don't do anything stupid that will get you arrested. A simple ding or a kick will leave a nice mark for him to remember NOT to disrespect others.

Damaging someone's car is not the right answer. If he wasn't willing to discuss the damage, call the cops and let them handle it. Karma is a bitch and he'll get what he deserves. Don't lower yourself to foolish impulses.
