Default My car got backed into by a Yukon parked in front

We were having lunch at Gus's BBQ in South Pasadena. My S was parked on Fair Oaks in front of the restaurant. A guy came up to our table and said "An SUV just hit your car and the woman got out and walked that way." Several of scratches on my front bumper where the Yukon went on top of it. The police came and pulled the woman out of a beauty shop. She was Brazilian, on her way back to Brazil today, with a Florida drivers license. The car was a Hertz rental and she had Hertz insurance. There's a police report. $571 and three days to remove and repaint my bumper. My insurance is Mercury and they are handling everything.

No surprise there. To a Yukon driver, the S is virtually invisible. And I bet she didn't even care after she hit your car and must've thought: "Eh, let me get beautified first..."

Her back window was so dirty you could write your name on it. I'm guessing she didn't even know she did it.

Even if it was clean, it's hard to see an S in the back from way up there. C'mon, it's a Yukon!
