Someone should lob concrete blocks at their heads :evil:

Glad you're ok though, guess it could have been a hell of a lot worse!

You could also have been on the recieving end of a block of concrete. Cars fix easier than people! Sorry about your car but I'm glad you're ok.

Terrible news, you can't even show a bit af community spirit without being attacked yourself. It's no wonder 99% of witnesses turn a blind eye :roll:
