So this just happened

You are obviously aware with opened handed strikes, it is less likely to break bones in your hand...yet transfers the equivalent force to the struck object.

Broken bones in your hand is a bad thing!

Good to know that little nugget of info...

That was almost a hit and run, but it looks like his truck and yours were a bit too intimate at that point for him to get away. Sorry you have to deal with that nonsense.

It was more for theatre. A stiff wind would have knocked this loser over but we were standing in the middle of a major road and I wanted to be demonstrative.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It amazes me how stupid some humans can be. How do you not learn from your first DUI??

 

[AutobahnSHO]

Some people suck. Sorry about your Mav.

 

[Darthie]

So sorry dude. Heart breaking

Uff, I feel your pain, having very recently dealt with two motorcycle collisions, one a hit and run, and then random vandalism to my 14 month old Maverick. Fortunately, glancing blows by motorcyles and cowboy boots just cause allot of cosmetic damage.

It really did appear the fellow wanted to pull away and run... Man! The evidence on your ring cam is such a good thing! I did not have a dash cam on my maverick, nor a camera on my home. Only had photos of damage after the fact.

This basically puts that door ding my Mav received on day 3 of my ownership into perspective.


Hopefully the drama around this won't last long!

Thank you, @Gullzway, for correcting my statement (this is how we learn things!).

Same rules applies here in Manitoba.

I did dig further though, to see where uninsured motorist coverage is, well, mandatory coverage in Canada....except in Alberta...as once started, I like to know the right answer!

Cheers

I wonder if Wab Kinew should look into that!

Whew boy. If that woke me up and I saw my Mav crunched by a drunk in front of my house my Ecobee cameras would have caught the accident, and then me beating some drunk ass all across my front yard.

EDIT: And yes, driving drunk deserves an ass kicking. I've been hit by two drunk drivers, wife seriously injured in one accident.

Witnessed a third accident outside my old apartment where one driver was wasted, drinking in a gym parking lot across the street, and legit just rolled out into a 4 lane road and blasted two cars. Beer cans and beer all over his car from the accident.

He tried to stumble away from the accident and I loaded up and slapped the shit out of him harder than I've ever hit someone with an open hand in my life. He went twirling to the pavement where he got a few kicks to the mid section until he threw up on himself. Then I dragged his ass over to the curb and laid him down until the cops came.

Have endured two family members killed and 1 injured due to DUI drivers in separate incidents. In one case the local police ‘failed’ to perform a blood test due to the driver’s injuries. The fact he was also a local police officer was a factor in the lack of prosecution. Fortunately we were able to find witnesses who provided statements as to his drinking earlier in the evening. Coupled with credit card receipts from the bar we were able to proceed with a civil suit. Yet he’s still employed as a cop.

Dang, that horrible. Hope you can get it fixed/replaced soon. That's gonna cost some cash

The second time we were hit the drunk driver was critically injured, and the vehicle I was driving was registered out of state.

Local authorities harassed me for two years after the accident all based on the fact the vehicle I was driving was an out of state vehicle.

My old truck was having some transfer case issues and I had a 96 Maxima (in my name!) still registered to my parents house in Ohio that I grabbed less than a month before. Sunday afternoon going to see a rescue puppy and slammed by a drunk ass at 2p on Sunday.

2 years of harassment.

The only thing worst than a dirunk cop is a dishonest cop. Combine the two and we all suffer.

So……..I’m not sure what to say

People sure seem to like hitting our Mavericks

Thankfully he got stuck and it seems like he'll have to deal with whatever consequences there are.
