In the original photo footage can you read the plate number?
It's very difficult to make out. If she would have kept driving, I wouldn't have any other way of knowing who she was.

Shouldn't be too bad, looks like all plastic damage to me. Hope you have a speedy repair

Good for her, and good for you on your response to the situation! Neat dash cam though. It records with the car off? What model is it?

My dash cam only records when the car is turned on.
Maybe I should get a better one so if I get in an incident like yours...

That's one nasty scratch.

Looking at a bumper, head light, blinker, and a bezel.

Looking at maybe 800 dollars worth of damages?

This is one of the better "Curse" we had, the damage dealter owned up to it and you got a dashcam but it is always saddening to see another twin hurt

We all have brain farts while driving, we're not perfect. The fact that she went out of her way to notify you and own up to it speaks volumes to her character. It sucks, but hopefully the repair will bring it back to like-new condition. It can always be worse!

That's awesome that she owned up to it.

My wife cuts corners sometimes in parking garages. She hasn't hit anything yet, but I always warn her about it. I'm going to send her this video lol.

Great she owned up to it, but proof why I fear minivan drivers! GLW getting her fixed up and back on the road.

Details ? My children door dinged my car I'm trading in on my FR-S, and I'd love to see if I could get rid of a few of them, they were nice enough to chip the paint though, so i'm not sure I can fix them.
