g******0 发帖数: 290 | 1 Today when I got out of the parking lot of the post office, my rear view
mirror touched the rear view mirror of the post office's ford car. My rear
view mirror fell off. Theirs is good. I checked their mirror, and found
it was good, no damage. So then I left. I didn't realize it could be
reported as a hit and run, though I think there is no damage. Many
witnesses saw me.
After I came back, I deeply regret that I left the scene. I called back
and asked them to check the car. They told me there was no damage. I
asked them whether they have called somebody (police) to report it. They
said they didn't. I left my name and phone number. Can I get relaxed
now? | g******0 发帖数: 290 | 2 Any comments? I am still worrying about that they already called the police

owner of the damaged vehicle or other property of his name,
address, information relating to financial responsibility and
the registration number of the vehicle being driven or shall

Post office的人不会骗你。本来也没damage,谁也不会为了公家没有
damage的车去讹你。人家没那闲工夫。
