Shopping Center Parking Lot
 

So I decide to take wifes '65 Mustang to the store today. As I am leaving the grocery store I see a woman parked next to my wifes Mustang as she lets loose of a grocery cart. I am about 50 feet away but I see the cart rolling straight for my fender as she walks away not giving a care in the world. As I approach the Mustang the cart is clearly against the front passenger fender and I moved it away to find a bit of paint and small dent on the fender. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/mad.gif

What is it with some people? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif I turned back around and she was gone. Looking back I should have pulled her outside and insisted that she paid up.

yea thats a classic....on a serious note you did the right thing leaving, person could have felt like you were to aggressive and called the cops, life altering crap these days if the cops come and someone says you threatend them or they were afraid for there life, around here if they charge you for something like that, no more guns for you, total bs

I had a lady slam her Escalade door into my truck at McDonalds a few years ago got out and said hey you slammed my truck and dented it...I must have looked mean as she was freaking out and would not even crack the window to talk about it, figured if the cops came it would not go good for me being the guy, so I left. I now karate kick all black Escalade driver doors hoping to get her back....not really but sure feal like it,lol.

I knew if I went back in the store looking for her I was going to unload and get loud. Keeping my cool was smart but I still can't understand people that don't seem to care at all for others property. From now on I will park farther away from everyone else.

When I was a kid I saw a old guy in a Cadillac pull up next to a really nice 69 Mach 1, the owner of the Mach 1 was sitting in the car. The old guy door'd the hell out of the Mach 1 with the heavy Caddy door and started walking away. The Mach 1 owner jumped out and started yelling at the Caddy owner, who just flipped him off and continued walking. The Mach 1 owner jumped on the hood of the Caddy and started jumping up and down caving in the hood. I was just starting to enjoy the show and my mom grabbed me and got me out of there so I never got to see the rest of the encounter. For the small town I was in it was the most exciting thing to happen that month for me. Still wish I could of watched the whole show...

I always joke with the kids and tell them "I don't get even,I get ahead".
In an instance like this this works for me. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Went to an upstate car show one time with some of my country friends....one of the guys had his car parked in show and we were all walking around. Came back about 1/2 hour later to find someone sitting on his front fender drinking a beer. He kept his cool and politely walked over and sort of looked at the car and asked the guy.." hey is this your car man, its real nice...??" and when the guy said "no,not mine"...he decked him!!! Seemed like the right thing to do at the time...nobody called the cops...the guy just took off.

Back in October at a local BJ's store in Northern Westchester a local idiot intentionally kicked a shopping cart into a womans car, caused more than a grand in damage - clown got charged with a felony (on top of others he had pending). Some never learn
-- no this isn't the car

Talk to the store manager and tell them what happened. Out here in CA, the store insurance will cover this damage if you show it was caused by the shopping cart.

Re: Shopping Center Parking Lot
 

That's true.
And many stores have outdoor videocameras that most likely captured the incident.
You would've been wise to chase her down the minute it happened to the Mustang,and respectfully confront her & the store manager.I had a similar situation and this was how I handled it with great success,albeit for the situation itself.
They tape over those videotapes shortly thereafter,so the odds of it still being there might not be too good today.

Good advice, hope I never have to use it. I think that I will share this with the store in hopes that they will take care of the damage.
