Road Rage Hit-and-Run
Leastways, that's how I see it.
There I was (in the Congo!) taking a short walk outside enjoying a cigarette, when a car whips around the corner at a very high rate of speed. About halfway into my "Hey motherfucker, SLOW DOWN!!!" movement, is when the second car sideswiped the parked car. Looked for all intents and purposes that car number 2 was in pursuit of car number 1, took the turn too fast, over-corrected and smashed into the parked car.
And then promptly drove off erratically.
I got the license plate, as did some other witnesses -- While I was fetching my phone apparently car number 2 came back to survey the damage, and wound up flipping off some neighbors who had come outside to see what the deuce was going on.
While I feel my karma to be a bit high (in the right place at the right time, scant feet from the accident), I do feel bad for the owner of the car that got hit -- Merry Christmas, indeed.
