Meanwhile, at the Clarkson GO station

This morning I was sitting in my car at Clarkson Go, because a once in a lifetime miracle happened and I was actually 15 minutes early for the train.

I'm sitting there, on the phone with my husband, and this woman decides she is going to try and park in a space that you could clearly see was too tight for even a motorcycle (she was driving a Mazda 6).

As she proceeds to park, she completely obliterates two cars on either side of the parking space (Nissan Rogue and a Mazda 3) taking out the back bumper, lights, side panels... At this point, she realizes that the car clearly won’t fit. So what does SHE decide to do? DRIVE AWAY AS IF NOTHING HAD EVEN HAPPENED!!!

I did my good deed for the day, even missing my train. I got her license plate and reported her to the police and Go Transit Security. There was at least a couple thousand dollars damage done between these two cars.

I wish I had thought to take a picture of this parking/driving donkey!

  2. And she must have damage to her own car as well. What an idiot! Hard to believe she wouldn't think someone would have seen her. I hope your employer appreciated that you were probably late for work because you were doing a good deed.

  3. I wonder if any of it was caught by the security cameras (assuming of course they exist and were operational). It's amazing that she would have passed a driving test at some point!

  5. Thank you for this! You seriously rock! I've been the victim of a few hit and runs like this and it sucks paying for something out of pocket that was in no way your fault. I hope some seriously good karma comes your way very soon!

    Please send in updates if you get any from the police/or owner of the damaged vehicles - that person totally owes you a box of beer!

  10. Better yet how does someone not care when they hear or do that?

  11. Using your cell phone camera would be a powerful evidence tool

  12. Where do you think she won her license? Haha. That's awful, though!
