Hey everyone!
So Thursday Mike and I went to Best Buy after I got off work, we were just needing to return a few things. When we came back out to the car there was a guy standing out side our car and said to us "Don't leave I just hit your car"....AHHHH!! NOT our band new 2011 Kia Soul!!! Luckily or unluckily the man who hit us was a police officer, and the car he hit us with was an unmarked police car. We then had to wait almost 45 minutes for another police officer to show up to do a report, which normally you don't have to call the police but because he was the police in a police vehicle we had to call them. After the report was done and we could leave I call our insurance company (USAA!!!) and they wanted us to immediately go to a collision repair place and have it inspected to see if it was drivable and to estimate the damage. The policeman hit us on the driver side fender right by the wheel well so it damage the side panel and the fender. After waitin
g 20 minutes to finish with the estimate we had now be on this car journey/fiasco for 2 1/2 almost 3 hours. The damage.......drum roll.......$750!!! Ouch! So moral of the story don't park in parking lots, you are not safe from ANYONE, even police officers who are suppose to be good drivers....not!
But now for the funny part, while we were waiting for the officer to arrive to make the collision report there was a fairly large truck that attempted to park in a handicap space across from us, he failed miserably (see my Facebook or to the right). It was so funny, he didnt even attempt to fix it at all, he just stayed half in his handicap stall and half in the other. We laughed pretty hard about that one!
