Long story short, I chased the guy down while trying to call 911 (new phone and it was going through my phonebook instead of dialing the digits 911), so I got out and told him to stop his truck, and he body checked me w/ his door. I then proceeded to drill his face through the window and he tried to drive away again. I had a handful of witnesses at court, from both where he hit my car and where he hit me w/ his truck. Once in court, the judge sided w/ this guy because "of my physical size" and that I threw the 1st punch. So basically I got screwed for not being a skinny ass twig due to the size I put on in the military, a technicality and a judge who wouldn't even entertain the witnesses - all who were complete strangers. Apparently hit and runs on a car and hitting me w/ his door, 5 witnesses there to testify in my case (who never even got heard), doesn't make you guilty enough in Boise.
Not more than a week later, I saw a hit and run happen directly in front of me from some guy who tried pushing a Lexus RX300 out of his way using someone elses Dodge Dakota. The person that got pushed and myself called the police, and I made sure to give a thorough description so these people don't get screwed by a hit and run driver. I absolutely HATE people that can't or think they can get away w/ owning up to complete screw ups like this, or just people who aren't responsible for their own actions in general. Oh crap, I just stubbed my toe...who put that damn table here?! Find me a lawyer :rolleyes:
