Was I lucky?
 
So today i was going to school and was looking for a parking spot. I was only focusing on the stalls to my right because there was a cute chick walking by. But when i looked over to my left, i saw a car pulling out of its stall, and by then it was too late. His rear bumper hit my rear right fender.

My car's fine, i have some minor scratches on the plastic above my wheel arch , nothing on the paint. His car had a few scratches on his bumper about the length of my forearm. Luckily they were not deep.

So was it my fault or his? He was backing out and didn't do a 360 check. But i was paying attention to the road....

Afterwards, we agreed to not exchange any info because it wasn't that big of a crash. So was i lucky that we didn't exchange info? Or was it his fault, and he lucked out?

I'm just curious. Sorry for the long read.

since its a parking lot, its 50/50

he should of looked better before reversing out, just like you should of been watching for people reversing out...

if there wasn't much damage then it doesn't really matter...

just like the time i rear ended this guy in his company truck...
there was NO damage but i got him to "forget" about it with 40$, he tried to get 100$ outta me but i told him i "only" had 40$ lol...

that was when my front plate got a permanent bend in it.

should've asked her to be a witness and got her contact info.

pretty sure the guy backing out of the stall is 100% at fault.

impulseX 03-02-2011 01:12 PM
i think it would have been his fault, but since there wasnt much damage at all, if any, then just let it go since you both agreed to

vehicle coming out of a parking spot (regardless of pulling out or backing out) is always at fault, it is up to that vehicle to ensure that the roadways are clear before leaving their spot.

you shouldn't be held liable at all.

when you go to give ICBC your statement DO NOT say you weren't paying attention, or checking out the girl :fullofwin:....he came out of no where as you were slowly looking for a spot and hit your fender...

Well it's too late now, we both decide to not make a deal out of it and didn't swap our info. At first i thought i lucked out, but now reading your guys' input i feel kinda retarded for not swapping info with him.

pic of cute chick or it didn't happen and 100% your fault:hotbaby:

How did he hit your rear right fender if he came out from the left?

PJ 03-02-2011 04:15 PM
Exact same situation happened to my dad. My dad being in your place.
The guy backing out was at 100% fault.

I'd say he's the one that was lucky.

But since you said it wasn't much damage, just brush it off.

A legitimate enough picture to cause a crash?

WHO IS SHE

Phil@rise 03-02-2011 05:25 PM
Were you lucky?
Well luck is kind of relative in this case.
I would define lucky in this instance as you got her number, had a nice dinner, went for drinks and then she asked you to toss it in her cute little behind later that night.
I must digress tho as this isn't the relationship room nor is it lala land
So no you didn't get lucky.
Look where you drive cus next time it might be my car you drive into and I'm not very friendly when people don't pay attention and drive into my cars and I'm sure I'm not the only unfriendly dude out there when their cars get bumped around by horny little buggers that don't pay attention.


Now show us more pics!

i knew this would happen to you one day... worth it

ilvtofu 03-02-2011 06:16 PM
I wouldn't have had let it go, squeeze some money out of the guy, you're supposed to look back when you reverse, so no I don't think you were the lucky one. But then again, you got to see a cute chick... you were probably like http://image.spreadshirt.com/image-s...man_design.png so I guess you win some you lose some haha
