I was eastbound on Princes Hwy in Dandenong today, waiting to turn right down Jones Rd when I noticed the car at the front of the queue in the lane to the left of me rolling backwards down the incline. The car behind him rolled backwards to give him room, but she ran out of room, stopped and hit the horn. The car in front kept coming and contact was made, possibly damaging paint and bumpers. The guy in front appeared oblivious to what had happened. The lady behind got out, walked up to him and opened his door to inform him he had hit her car. She was not abusive - a little annoyed understandably, but not threatening. The guy still appeared to have no clue. The lady walked back to her car and the guy in front took off! Through a red light as well I think. I could see this was happening and took note of the car and rego. It was a dark grey late 80's/early 90's Camry driven by a man approximately 50 years old and probably Indian or similar.
I told the lady the rego I noted and then had to move on as the lights went green. I did a U turn and stopped in the service road, but she had to move on also and lost her. So I went to the cop shop not long ago and the copper there knew the road once I mentioned Princes Hwy as the lady had made a complaint already - which is what I had hoped she would do. So with my story - the Camry driver is screwed. I've heard stories where some people have been reversed into and then the person who did it claims the other car drove into them. My Mum has both sides of her Hyundai scratched recently and no one has left notes. The car is only a couple of years old. So I felt I had to even the score a little.
