Today, while on the highway, a guy in a truck sped up to pass me. He was hauling a trailer, which hit me and ran me off the road. I called the cops and followed him all the way into town, where the cops pulled him over. They let him go without even a ticket, because, "He didn't know he hit you." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was driving in my very own car that I bought and paid for myself, when I stopped at a stop light. Then I noticed the truck in front of me turn on his reverse lights. I honked desperately. He hits me, looks out the window and says, "I see no damage" and drives away. FML
Today, I got rear ended. The guy flashed his lights at me to pull over, so I pulled into the side of the road. He drove away. FML
Today, while driving home, some idiot kept tailgating me, so I slowed down, hoping he'd overtake me. He didn't, so I pulled to the side of the road. He did the same, in front of me. He kept toying with me until I crashed into another car trying to speed away from him. FML
Today, I was driving home when a guy crashed into me from behind. I got out of my car and told him that I was going to call the cops. He then asked me if we could move to a corner because we were blocking the way, so we then got back in to move. I looked in the mirror to see him driving off. FML
Today, I was speeding a little on the highway. I thought I saw a police car, so I slammed on my brakes, causing the person behind me to rear end me. The "police car" I saw was just a broken down car on the side of the road. FML
Today, I was driving 65 on a fairly deserted highway when some speeding inbred in a giant truck chose not to use the open passing lane but instead SWERVED INTO THE SHOULDER to go around me, and then cut me off. Any closer and I would've been a smear on the asphalt. FML
Today, while I was driving, a police officer jumped out from the sidewalk and into my lane. I slammed on the brakes so I wouldn't hit him. He then gave me a ticket for "obstructing traffic." FML
Today, some aggressive asshole was tailgating me on my way home, bumping into me twice. I got scared and kicked my car into high gear and got out of there. Seconds later, a traffic cop came out of nowhere and pulled me over for speeding. FML
Today, a cop almost rear-ended my car, slammed on the gas with no warning, swerved around me, flipped me the bird, then cut me off and then drove a full ten miles under the speed limit. When I changed lanes to overtake him, he pulled me over for road rage. FML
Today, I was riding a bike when a truck accidentally hit me. The handsome driver came out and asked if I was alright. I said, "I am now" and winked. He said "Eww, no" then immediately ran away and drove his truck around me. FML

A sane police officer would give him a ticket anyways for reckless driving.

Funny. The cops on "Cops" never fall for that "I didn't know" shit.
joea21 21
The cops on "cops" also deal with more serious stuff than that. Don't think anyone would watch as cops chase down fender benders!
gracehi 33
Clearly my jest was lost on you. But in any case, you're wrong anyway. I once saw an episode where a cop confronted a guy for Jay walking.
joea21 21
Is that what passes for jest these days? And it must have been jay walking on crack, makes the show more exciting
sdroze1389 31
crack makes everything more exciting! but cops is a pointless show where cameras follow the fat cop while he breaks up white trash weeding scuffles and yes, jaywalking

Why all the hate?!

Won't his insurance still cover the damage though?
brettrb 18
Sadly it doesn't always work like that. OP will most likely be able to get it covered under insurance but he may have to fight for it. Also depending on where he lives his monthly payments may go up after the claim even though he wasn't at fault. It sucks but that's just how it goes sometimes.

This seems fishy, I want to know what the other driver said to the cop to get away. Maybe next time I run a red light I'll just tell the cop, "I didn't know it was red." See how my luck turns out with this.

I agree, I feel like there's more to this story. Someone also made the comment that they can't arrest someone if they didn't witness it or there were no witnesses, so maybe there were no witness around, and there were no marks on his car, therefore no evidence?

You have obviously never driven with a trailer. If something bumps into your trailer and the trailer is fairly heavy you won't notice it, I feel it's safe to assume we aren't talking about a little 4x8 trailer. The majority of cops will understand this and won't view it as hit and run.

I'd bet my left nut that the cop knows the driver.
icnburbbygrl 23
Not your right one?
cakefete2 31
I'm kind of hoping that they were complete strangers. I think it would be funny to watch you squirm when it comes time to pay up that bet.
gracehi 33
No, just the left one. The right one is his favorite, and he's not willing to gamble with that one.
J3R3MYY 14
I'm curious as to why you know such information #26.
gracehi 33
Well, sdroze, looks like we're caught. All right, Jeremy (or however the **** you spell it), sdroze and I are madly in love. We've been seeing each other behind your back. I can tell sdroze anything, and he can tell me anything. He's confided in me his deepest, darkest secrets, including which one of his testicles is his favorite and his personal limitations on gambling. I'm so sorry, Jeremy. I know you must hate me, but the truth is I never meant to hurt you, it's just I fell in love with someone else and I just couldn't help it. I hope one day you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

This is why everyone loves FML comments.
cakefete2 31
Wait a minute, Grace, you've been seeing Jeremy?! That good for nothing two timing bastard! What about our kids, Jeremy?! Even when you decided to butcher the spelling of your name, I stayed by your side. Beside ovaries, lady parts, and an awesome profile pic, name one thing Grace has that I don't.
J3R3MYY 14
Oh boy, I got caught on FML. Cakefete2 I swear this is not what it looks like, this is all just a misunderstanding.. Grace you bastard, I could never forgive you after this one you said you guys were, "just friends."
sdroze1389 31
I'm so glad my left nut could air such scandal within the ranks of FML. we should take our love triangle on Jerry and get that daytime tv money. also I chose the left because I have no right nut due to a violent scuffle involving grace and a disagreement on what brand of lube to use.

It doesn't matter if he was clueless about hitting you. The fact that he hit you is considered reckless driving. Report the matter to someone and be sure you get a different cop to look into this, you go steamrolled by a corrupt cop.
A7XCamaro 19
I'm pretty sure it won't be viewed as reckless driving, especially not having witnesses.

buy a dashcam , so you always have some proof
mazziemom 1
In Russia dashcam saves you

Unfortunately this happens, maybe the officers knew the guy personally, you never know. At least you are okay. That's what is important.

Sounds like the cops in my city..

You got all grounds to sue the trucking company and get that cop fired I wouldn't let it go to waste... It's your money your paying to get your car fixed. Probably sue local police force too lol
Mortoli 30
I for one would be happy to see some bacon rolling around. I'm getting tired of all these shitty dirty pigs... Just my opinion.
Mortoli 30
Lol reminds me of that time I got pulled over by that cop for speeding.. I was speeding cause his bumper was practically on mine I couldn't slow down and I just got my car out the shop... But because my job he let me go.

That's no excuse 37, it'll be on video in the officers car if he hits you.
