I needed the front end re-sprayed anyway

I was parked in a county-owned garage for a court hearing and came out to this. Luckily there are a lot of cops and cameras so the other driver called it in. Current estimate is at just over $5K!

I guess someone wasn't pleased with the outcome of their court appearance.

Good luck!

What does that have to do with anything? Majority of ppl park front first and reverse out. Could of happened in any spot. Plus when parking in middle, its just twice the chance of door dings

If you park on the end of the row you have a good chance of somebody turning, misjudging the distance and just turning right into your car. I've literally seen idiot drivers do this before. It looks like that's exactly what happened to his car.

Sorry to see that, at least you're getting it handled, and get that front end looking factory fresh again.
Hope it's smooth sailing w/ the insurance & body shop.

Probably - You Tube is loaded with vids from garage surveillance cameras showing precisely that happening.
