Minor Accident Because of Stupidity....Not Mine.

[AudiWxGuy]

So I'm coming back from Publix after grabbing a delicious sandwich. I pull up to the gate at my apartment complex to find a car sitting in front of the gate, not moving. The car sat there for a good minute or so before somebody came from inside the complex to open the gate and let the car in. The gate opens and the person begins to pull in. I hit my remote to hold the gate open for my car so it doesn't close on me. The person pulls in, all the way through the gate with me following and then STOPS while I'm about halfway through. I start honking to say, "hey, i'm back here and in the gate. Please do not stop." The person doesn't budge until the gate starts to close. By that time it was too late, and as I was getting the ass end of my car out of the way of the gate, it swiped the side of my car. Allegedly, this is my fault because I followed her in. But, who on earth, that could put a logical thought in their head, would do that. I'm still livid.

I was so angry. I've never seen anyone do that before. If this person pulled up another 6 feet it wouldn't of happened. Luckily, the damage is minimal. There are no dents. Just some scratches on the door molding, the bottom of the driver side rear QP, and the door blade. I'm hoping most of it can be buffed out, and the repair will be minimal.

I'll post some pics tomorrow.

I guess your remote didn't hold the gate open? Did this person escape you somehow? Maybe they thought they were making the safe resident move :/

[AudiWxGuy]

I don't even know if she lives in the complex. I could barely understand what the woman said. She had about 4 teeth.

No. I followed her to where she parked and explained that you can't just stop when someone is behind you. She went on to say she didn't hear me honking. Probably b/c she is deaf. It was futile to argue with her as she could barely speak english--although she was American. And since she didn't hit me, there's not a whole lot that can be done.

Sorry to hear about that dude. I really hate stupid people too. There are a lot of them here in America when it comes to driving sense.

Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you, but not in one ahead.

Did you punch her face and knock the rest of the teeth out?

[rnp614]

I would have been livid. Wow. Good on ya for not killing her.

damn, you should've knocked the rest of her teeth out

sorry to hear that... right before you got your new rims, too

[AudiWxGuy]

I know! They will be here on Friday. Going on the car on Saturday. I am very excited. I'll get the paint taken care of shortly after. And now I have an excuse to get my valence painted flat black as well.

always keep a sodacan full of rocks in your cup holder for situations like this... dummies need to have things thrown at them when the horn doesn't set them straight.

agreed. rocks fix everything.

I would have punched the shit out of her corner panel as a thank you.

[B7A4Sport]

Sounds like she wouldn't have been able to explain you as the guilty one if you had retaliated on her car.....and another +1 to knocking the rest of her teeth out. I really have a hard time believing how ridiculously stupid people become behind the wheel of a car.

Sorry to hear, WX!

Thanks for the sympathy guys.
