Angry Leaving the scene of the accident

There are people in this world that I would quite happily hurt for a quite considerable period of time

Some absolute ******* driving a Volvo has just almost taken the front off our Rosey, my Wife was driving our children to the doctors at the time

It doesn't look like much but if she hadn't slammed on it would have been a lot worse

Paint transfer and a nice dent on the crease of the drivers side front wing, police were informed of the car and licence plate taken so he will be getting a visit from the local constabulary, hopefully while they are all carrying batons

Gutted for you Tony.
At least Sophie and the girls weren't hurt although I'm sure they were shook up by the experience.

There really are some vile people in this world.......a waste of oxygen !

The most important thing is that Sophie and the children are ok.

The car can be fixed and the culprit sorted later

Thanks Gaz, it was an 07 plate so hopefully it will be his own car. the Police have his reg plate and address, and they want Sophie to go in tomorrow and make a statement about what happened.
