Maybe the driver was running away from a minor accident!

I totally understand and sympathise.  My brush with a bent cop who identified me as the cause of an accident has cost me a conservative 70K + six months of worry.  Meanwhile my insurance company (Thannachart) has paid compensation to the real culprits without ever accepting my side of the story despite me having photos and proof that I was stationery at the time.
