[QUOTE="DriverNerd, post: 5344386, member: 61439"] You summed it up right at the beginning: report any accident immediately. Yet it still happens so often that you had to make a video about it. I get being nervous about reporting an accident - nobody wants to make that call, but it just has to be done. My personal story: I took out a mailbox during a snow storm (the dreaded 2 mph slide on ice that feels like slow motion but nothing you can do to stop it). I barely hit it, but the post was rotted enough to just snap. Left a teeny tiny scratch on the truck you wouldn't have been able to make out over any of the other scratches already there. Not a single soul outside (snow storm remember). I could've easily drove away. But, what if there was a camera or someone watching from their window? I reported it, got a "that was naughty" speech, and a ride along the next day. Never heard another word about it. I call tell that story today because I still have a job. [/QUOTE]
