Two months of interupted sleep, month and a half of back pain from the cold acting up the herniated disk from this past August, two of the crappiest weeks that I have had in a long time, went to a wake tonight and on the way home got into a mild car accident..... And no DF yet.
The ahole slams on his brake as soon as the light turns yellow, I slam on mine, the roads have ice and I hit him. The ahole is from an Eastern European country which is very common in this area, gets out, looks at me and shrugs. I said the light just turned yellow and he said its now red. I said I have a witness, my wife. I no speak English. He said nobody hurt, my bumper is cracked. I drive a Land Rover Discovery. Great vehicle! It is completley reinforced so when the bumper cracked there is a metal bumber underneath that was not hurt. It is a very solid vehicle. He decides that he wants to drive off. Knowing what he was about to do I look at my wife and mouth to her to get the plat. Now faced with either beating the crap out of this old ahole, Mr. I no speakedy English I figured on calling 911 instead. I followed him and described the vehicle and then drove to the police station. now it is in their hands and the insurance.
Two scenarios and P.O.P can verify this as he lived in this area. I do not mean to point fingers but in this part of Chicago we are over run by these people who refuse to learn and speak English and come from Eastern Europe (by the way he had the flag on his car). I know it is not all of them but this is not the first encounter anyone has had like this with them. They pull the no English thing all the time. I have Eastern European friends who tell me the reason is they are usually ILLEGAL. 3 scenarios. 1. He had no insurance. 2. Not his car 3. Illegal alien. Needless to say he will get his since I have given the info to the cops. I am just still sooo pissed!!!
Sorry to vent and in no way should this be taken as bashing on them. But again, this part of the city is overun and it is fact.
I feel better that I got it off of my chest and have no one to vent to.
Thank you all! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
