Today, some guy hit my car and then threatened to sue me for "parking my car in such a way that it was impossible not to hit it." My car was in the driveway. FML

Today, a guy hit my car, and I threatened to sue him after he started the conversation rudely. He told me to go ahead, because he doesn’t have any money or a job anyway, then because from his perspective he had nothing else really to lose, he kicked my ass. FML

Today, a drunk driver drove his car through my mailbox. He got pissed, started yelling, and threatened to sue me for "putting the mailbox in the middle of the road". If my front lawn is a road, I'm going to have some serious issues. FML

Today, after I arrived at work, somebody crashed into my parked car and left a big dent. The impact pushed my car up onto the curb and I got a parking ticket. FML

Today, a guy who lives in my condo complex threatened to take my husband and me to small claims court. Why? He was mad about the $300 fine to get his truck back after it was towed, because he was parked in our spot. FML

Today, I was driving around a parking lot, looking for an empty spot. Someone was backing out a bit too quickly as I was about to pass by, so I honked to announce myself. The driver instead panicked and reversed into my front bumper. FML

Today, I decided to be a good driver and not run through the yellow light. As soon as I stopped my car another came and rear-ended me. The guy told me to go in the parking lot so we can exchange information. So I drove into the parking lot, I turned my head and watched him drive away. FML

Today, I was parking my car outside of my apartment, but the big truck next to the spot went over the line. I squeezed in anyway. Later, I discovered the truck had left and someone keyed my car. They left a note saying, "Good parking job, asshole." FML

Today, I hit a car while trying to park. Assuming that no one saw, I moved my car and parked somewhere else. Hours later I get a call from the university police. While backing up to go to the police station I hit another car. FML

Take an ass-load of pictures of the cars placement and tell him or her to bring it the **** on. You will win for sure if what you said is accurate.

When I hear shit like this it makes me ashamed to be from the States. Everyone really does sue each other for the most stupid, random shit they can think of.

I am not a lawyer but it seems to me that any such suit would be summarily dismissed as frivolous. In any event, if he does sue you for such, your insurance company will provide someone from their pool of legal sharks to defend you, and *they'll* get this chowderhead laughed out of court. Dunno about your state, but in Massachusetts, "hitting a parked vehicle", whether the vehicle in question was legally parked or not, is one of the "standards of fault" for assigning blame in an accident. Striking a parked vehicle is like a rear-ender. Unless there's a pretty unusual set of mitigating circumstances, the blame is pretty much on the person who hit the parked car.
