My wife and I went out of town shopping with my parents today. We had an exciting start too. Less than a mile from their house in town, we came up on a 2 vehicle accident just as one of the rigs was leaving. The other driver was just standing there looking them drive off with shock on his face. My Dad was driving us, and being the old hot rodder he is, he stomped on it and caught up to the rig that left and we got the license plate number, then passed them and started blocking the road Dukes of Hazard style till the guy caught up with us, and we forced her to a stop in the middle of the highway. With us both blocking the road, she reluctantly pulled over in a gas station parking lot maybe a mile from the accident. The guy had already tried to call 911 and didnt get through so I called it again for him. About an hour later, I got a call from an officer asking questions and said I need to fill out a report, but I told him we didn't witness the wreck itself, just the fleeing part and helped stop her. So don't really know whats going to happen now, he did tell me she was getting at least 2 citations though. So anyway, our good deed for the day. Just hope we're that lucky if it ever happens to us.
Although my wife did have it happen once, and had to chase the person down herself, with no witnesses, but luckily the cop followed the same path they had, and saw the peices of her grill in the road several blocks away, so the other guy couldn't lie his way out.
Moral to all this, if you screw up, face it. Don't run off, that's just lame.
Ok, I'm done.
