Default TT got a new look today - thanks to the woman behind me.

<center><img src="http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p312/diehlryan/100_1390.jpg"></center><p>I was leaving a business networking breakfast this morning around 9am, sitting at a redlight, on the phone with the boss, and I feel a jerk in the car (almost like I let the clutch out and its lurched/stalled.)

The woman behind me let up pressure on her brake and just drifted into me.

You can see the damage. No denting, just 2 round imprints from her license plate.

I hung the phone up and looked at it, met her at her window, and told her not to worry. Jumped back in my car and sped off.

I've done this before to someone and so has my wife and each time the driver of the other car just took off without any info, no problems. Thought it was a nice time to return the favor. Its just a car.

Sorry for the lengthy update.

Default That sucks, man.

Kudos for your kindness. My car also has a similar ding in the same spot that was there when I bought it. No worries, it doesn't make the car any slower.

Any harder and you'd have her plate number regardless

Default Don't ever let a woman get behind you......

Change lanes, slow down until she passes (and she will), pull off on the side of the road, speed up like hell and hope she can't keep up, whatever it takes. Specially if she's on the phone.
