Honestly if you are a police officer you are probably more horrified that the driver didn't realize she bumped into another vehicle than her admitting hit and run. Admitting she didn't realize she bumped into a stationary object as a driver speaks about her overall awareness level as a driver. What happens if your kid is walking behind her in a parking lot and she bumps into him/her? Pretty scary stuff here. At least people can now be on the lookout for light colored BMW SUV's in busy parking lots over the holidays. Still pretty miffed she didn't get charged as it's not like city police to let anyone off the hook for anything these days. They are pretty militant nowadays compared to years ago.
