Default Should I drive my car? (Snowplow hit and run)

I need to go file a police report. City of Calgary grader plowed our road and hit my car. We arrived home around 3pm (passing the grader and trucks about 10 blocks past ours) and noticed our 2nd car had smashed windows and was pushed 18" forward into the snow

311 (City of Calgary) says that the Grader should have left a sticker if he hit the car, but I guess the guy didn't notice, so technically it is a hit and run. The city is going to send an adjuster out on Monday to look at it, but said I need a police report before they can do anything.

Called the non-emergency police line and they said if the car was drivable, to bring it to a police station to file the police report. If not drivable, it will take days for an officer to come out.

Called my insurance broker and they weren't much help either.

So - I turn to CP....should I clean off my car and drive it to the police station, or am I better off leaving it for an officer and/or the City of Calgary adjuster to come see the damage and confirm that it was the grader.



Spoiler!
