NOT YOUR AVERAGE HIT & RUN
My roommate’s car was totaled last night in a hit & run - but this was not your average hit & run. I got the call around 10:30ish from Steve saying he was just down the road and waiting for the cops. I get there and his car is totalled on one side, he’s halfway up a steep 30 yard long driveway into a hotel, and there is a huge gash in the road from metal scraping. The first thing I ask him when I get there is “where is the other car?” and he says its up the hill parked. So I ask where is the other driver, and he says “I don’t know.” The truck that hit him was one of those bigass 6 wheel trucks, and barely had a scratch on it.

The truck had hit my roommate while it was turning, and they didn’t even stop they just kept turning and basically dragging my roommates car for 20 yards or so.

So we had like 3 or 4 cops at the scene trying to figure out what the hell was going on, meanwhile we’re standing out in the freezing weather waiting for probably 1.5 hours. Then the cops find out that the dudes are inside the hotel. It was a room full of drunk dudes who are from Ohio, working in this area on some sort of contract as carpenters or something like that. But of course, they don’t know where their boss is - the driver.
