Hi Rayanne<br />
<br />
I wasn’t trying to pour salt on your wounds and I hope that I did not cause you any extra grief, please forgive me if I did so. Just trying to provide some insight as how maybe the old guy was thinking, trying to make some sense out of the whole mess.<br />
<br />
Things have a funny way of coming back around to us or Karma you might say. I am sure that he will get what coming to him at some point in the future.<br />
<br />
Best of luck with your car!<br />
<br />

Regardless of how important this car is to this guy - his reaction was completely over the top.<br />
<br />
I bet his life is filled with many people who fear him and few (if any) that love him. Maybe his kids - if he has any - but I'd suspect they just pretend to love him to make sure they get something when this nasty SOB kicks it.<br />
<br />
We all have things precious to us. His reaction was nothing less than disgusting. Sounds like an old bastard that needs a good punch in the face if you ask me.<br />

Regardless of whether this was his dream car or not, debasing the person who accidentally hit him is unacceptable. Thoroughly uncalled for. Hey Rayanne

Hey Rayanne<br />
<br />
Sorry to hear about your bad day, I would never pick on someone that is feeling down or promote bad behavior as mentioned in your post but you need to give a little more empathy to the guy whose car you hit. It is not just a car but a brand new Bentley. It could have been this guy’s life dream to own one and you just hit it. A car is never the same after it has been in an accident; the repairs will be recorded on Carfax which could cause the value to decline a great deal, even if…

Sorry to hear about your bad day, I would never pick on someone that is feeling down or promote bad behavior as mentioned in your post but you need to give a little more empathy to the guy whose car you hit. It is not just a car but a brand new Bentley. It could have been this guy’s life dream to own one and you just hit it. A car is never the same after it has been in an accident; the repairs will be recorded on Carfax which could cause the value to decline a great deal, even if it’s fixed to perfection. Most people that purchase a car of this type would consider it “their baby”; you might as well have just castrated him right on the spot. He has probably been drunk since the accident and certainly has done his share of crying over it.<br />

Maybe I am just too big of a can fan as I have lived most of my life in the greater Detroit area, here cars are king and they are weaved into very fabric of our lives. It my sound strange but a lot of us guys get attached to our cars, motorcycles, boats etc…it hurts when things happen to them especially when it is not your fault.
