Default Poor bastard.

Was just coming home from the train station from work. Seen some cop's on the side of the road, undercover car with a flashing light on top. I came to a stop at the lights, and I hear a very loud screech. Then I felt myself forward, poor bastard hit me right in front of the cops! They were literally a meter away from my car on the side of the road, pulling someone else over for speeding.

The back bumper smashed in and cracked off, his car was a bit worse on the front end. He and I were both distracted by the cops, but I actually slowed down for the red light. All is taken care of though, hes going to pay for it, I just thought it was funny. Couldn't have happened at a worse time, for him anyway.

Irrefutable proof that it wasn't your fault. I'd say it works out well for you :

Accidents are never nice no matter what car you're in. Glad to hear it wasn't one of your pride & joys though. Also glad no one was hurt.
