Are people really this stupid?

I thought this only happened to Britney Spears.

The crappy neighbor backed into the nice neighbor's son's friend's car. He got out, looked at the (obvious) damage, and got back in and drove away. Did he really think they wouldn't notice a huge dent in the hood of the car? Did he really think that, in the middle of the morning in the middle of our neighborhood, no one saw?

Now, if it was MY car he backed into, I would have called the police. I tend to be a bit bitchier than most, especially in my present knocked-up state, but seriously. Come on. At least leave a note with your name and number. I understand about being in a hurry, hence backing into a BRIGHT RED car, but it takes about 13 seconds to jot down your number and leave it on the windshield. Trust me, I know. I left my number on my husband's car after I met him at the gym.

To add to the drama, when the owner of the car, his dad, and our neighbor's son knocked on the door, the people refused to come outside or give them the guy's phone number. Now, at this point, if I hadn't already called the police, I would have right then, on their porch. And I would have called the home-owners, seeing as how the house is rented by about 15 people.

I guess some people, possibly even most people, are nicer than me. Now I'll just sit back, relax, and wait for the drama to unfold when the driver of the Jeep gets home.
