So the girlfriend decided last week to put her side quarter panel to the test by turning into a parked car. Totally her fault (insert female parking joke here) but I'm wondering about the police report.
The damage was less than $1000, but the guy whose car she hit got a little excited and went the cops and filed a report. For the last 2 days the cops have been calling her saying she has to go in and fill one out as well. If the damage is less than $1000, does she HAVE to go in and do this? From what I recall, as soon as the cops assign blame in a traffic accident they automatically issue a ticket, which I would like to avoid.
Anyone have any experience with a situation like this? Can I tell the cops to beat it or what??
