Well this happened a couple years back right before I joined the Corps.
The story goes as me and my buddy got hungry and went out to this late fast food place around 2am. And as I'm driving back to his apartment complex there's only 1 spot even close to his apartment. It was a tight fit let alone tight enough for a camaro to fit in there and I had just gotten the car not a few days before this happened so I was still weary of how big it was for I was soley used to driving a small 2 door blazer. I got in fine but too tight to get the both of us out so I decided I'd park pretty far away and as I was reversing I must have had scraped her blue Jetta off to the right of me but couldn't tell because the exhaust was too loud to hear anything happening outside.
The next morning I wake up to a loud knocking on the door to find out it's a man in blue asking where my car was. Sure as hell I had swapped a small amount of my paint to her car and was told I could get a rag and wash it off. So I did and the end result was getting a hit and run and her getting $1300 for a small scuff on her rim was left. Lucky enough the DA had a hard on for military and dropped the case once he saw the pics. I easily washed off the paint from my car and wasn't even noticeble unless you got up and close to inspect it. It was my fault and I should have inspected her car before I went inside. Dumb mistake that I learned from.
