Today, I've owned my dream car for 11 days. Someone backed into it while it parked at work, and drove away without leaving a note. A man at a nearby business knows who did it but won't tell me because it was one of his customers. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found my car with its front end smashed in. The offender was nowhere to be seen, but had left a helpful note that stated, "Sorry about your car but you can go fuck yourself because you will never find me. Muwahahaha!" FML
Today, as I left the supermarket, I found someone had hit my car in the parking lot. There was a note tucked under the wipers. Insurance details? Nope. It just said "Sorry dude. I fucked up. Good luck with the car." Great. FML
Today, my boss reported to the police that a suspicious car has been parked outside the store late at night. I walked outside and my car was gone. He had my car towed. FML
Today, my car was stolen. From my driveway. By the guy who sold it to me. FML
Today, I went outside and walked to my car, only to see someone had hit and run my car while it was parked. My insurance company deemed my car a total loss. The person who did this never got caught. FML
Today, I accidentally hit someone's car while in the supermarket car park. I left a note, went shopping, and when I came back my windows were shattered, my tires were slashed, and "FUCK YOU" was written on my windshield. FML
Today, I finally got enough money to buy the car I wanted for a year now. It was stolen today too. I had my car for 4 hours. FML
Today, I took my car to a car wash, and when I got it back, one of the rearview mirrors was missing. Someone knocked it off and the management refuses to cooperate on who was the thief. FML
Today, someone backed straight into my car as I was hunting for a parking spot. I just got my car back from the body shop after a hit-and-run. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Get the cops involved. The business owner will have to give away who hit your car as he would otherwise be charged with obstruction of justice for withholding important information about a crime.

Ok I'm not a law guru but I believe he has to say who did it as he is not supplying information of a crime. But hey as I said I'm no guru so I have no idea

where i live, he has to supply evidence, if he doesn't, you could just send the police there to get the information

only if he is subpoenaed, otherwise there is nothing that requires him to give it up

it would be easy enough for him to say he doesn't know to the police. how are you going to prove he does.

As soon as the police mention the words "Aiding and Abetting", he may suddenly "remember" who it was.

Isn't it illegal to withhold information like that?

Looks like it's time to contact the authorities.

glad I'm not the only one who thought that must've been obstruction of justice... besides, I get that it was a customer, but it's not like the guy will know the business owner gave him up...

While technically true, where I live cops don't care about such small crimes, and while they would take a police report, they would never go to investigate a hit and run without an injury.

That's when you go to the local paper saying that the business owner is withholding information about a crime and see how quickly he changes his mind.

I don't know how people damage other people's stuff and just drive away. That would eat at my conscience so bad, saving money wouldn't even be worth the guilt.

A lot of people probably would rather deal with stuff eating at their conscience than their wallet.

I think some people panic and run off before their brain kicks in, but they're too afraid of going back and fessing up.

I once backed into a boat. Do you have any idea how expensive boats are?! I had to go into the store and find the owner (ended up being the store owner) and tell them I hit their boat. I was in tears. All the damage it did was I had a busted tail light. They told me not to worry and thanked me for telling them and gave me a hug. I don't know how I missed a boat. I don't even live near a lake! I'm also not allowed to drive my husband's vehicle anymore... it sucks but you man up and tell whoever you hit that you hit them. I had a person hit my car and try to drive off. They couldn't so they got out and walked. Left the car. No insurance, of course, so I had to pay. Idiots.

you're a good person. and the person that hit you should be arrested.

Pretty sure withholding information of a crime, minor or otherwise, is illegal hey. I think maybe you should get the police involved. Im sorry about the car and sticky situation, OP. xx

That completely sucks. similar thing happened to me awhile back. had my car a month, was inside paying for gas and a work truck backed into it. no cameras at the gas station and nobody else stepped up, so i had to pay out of pocket. luckily it was just the front bumper with a small-ish dent so i didn't care much. call the cops, because they will make him give up the information and any video footage. best of luck
