Happened to me once at a girlfriend's house. Her Teutonic Knight uber Father, with his MIT PhD and cool geeky attitude, decided to open the garage door for some Farfegneugen, backing his diesel rabbit into my Nova at about ten or twenty miles an hour. He was so accustomed to just "whipping out" at his rural Fortress of Solitude that he didn't even bother to look before he stepped on it (his other claim to fame was the "pop pass" where he'd come up about ten feet off of your bumper before whipping around you).

Well, his excitement ended early when he felt and then saw my Nova.

He came into the house a short time later, holding the remnants of one of his tail lights while asking me very nicely to park elsewhere on my next visit. I didn't even see the dents for days after wards.

Sorry about your accident. Even more sorry that your Mom doesn't look behind her before she backs up. Good thing she didn't smash a kid or run out into the street and crunch someone on a bicycle.

No, I don't watch TV, at least often enough to see such things.

We have a lot of elderly drivers hereabouts. I've seen them do all sorts of crazy stuff. Including backing out into traffic as if it were their driveway.

God protects children and idiots. Most of the time.
