You know I bought a lotto ticket on Saturday figuring I was due for some luck... nothing.

I go into work today finish up this staircase/handrail job for them get told "We dont have any more work.  It was nice having you around..."   So I got let go today also.  Maybe buy another lotto ticket?   

like the saying goes "when it rains it pours" .

If I'm in a really tight spot I take cell phone pics of cars on the left and right.

There would be no way to prove that the car(s) you took pics of, didn't leave and other car(s) didn't come in/park/leave and cause the damage. Not like there will be any matching damage at parking speeds....

I don't see anything to stand on with this procedure.

In my case, had I been savvy enough (or paranoid) to take a picture of the sliver honda infront of me, I could have paired that with the witness' account and might have had a case.  Because the eye witness didnt get the plate, I am SOL. 

I've had my car hit in a parking lot with HUNDREDS of witnesses, licenses plate, location of vehicle with matching damage on car that hit me, and the police said, "Well if we don't witness them doing it or if they don't turn themselves in there is nothing we can do"

It's a pretty bullshit excuse for not wanting to waste police resources so that we have enough evidence to sue someone. With all the laws that govern us you'd think there'd be something in there to protect/help the victims instead of everything protecting the criminals.

Man this really sucks..!!!

if you had a pic of the plate just say the guy hit & run. If they question him later they usually get to the bottom of weather or not he's lying.

Unless it wasn't him. There are penalities for filing a false police report.
