Neo a victim in a minor Traffic accident.

Yoo can always get even with her later. Get her phone number and find every public bathroom in the area and put up a sign:

"For a good time call *********. #WeDoEmAll."

We English take our time and think properly about a problem or payback.

Other than the possible out-of-pocket on the collision itself, it would seem that you got plenty of payback, and in a most appropriate manner: without having to lift a finger; she gave herself all the payback in the world.

When she snapped “you have met the wrong person” it wrangled me. Obviously I didn’t look like the sort of old fella that in my old life I didn’t give a shit, and age was no defence.

But why would this obviously “Posh educated” woman think she could get away with taking my car keys?
I as a hard thinking bloke thought that she would have tossed the keys in someone’s garden a few miles away and I’d have been well fucked.
Thats what I’d have done.
She thought she was being clever trying to mess with me.

Understood, but if you sit back for a second and reflect, it was like a little bit of payback judo - she set herself up for a whomping big fall, and all you had to do was give a little "tug" in the right direction - phoning the cops, which I assume must generally be done when there's a collision - and she collapsed all under her own metaphoric inertia.

She didn't think. She just emoted and acted, and then when she got caught with them, tried to childishly lie her way out of it.

I agree that, if she'd really thought about how to do you the most harm, driving off half a mile or so and chucking the keys out the window would have left you in a real pickle. But she didn't, because she wasn't thinking.

Piss in her fish and chips?

Piss in her fish and chips?

With Google Earth I know exactly where she lives in Oxfordshire, I assure you there is no fish and chip shops near her, but I have a fish and chip shop 10 minutes walk from my house.



Yep,you are drooling in America looking at this.

[JustPassinThru]

Ok I’ve googled her address, she lives 37 miles away.

To get her car out of cop compound it will cost her £150 recovery fee + £20 per day storage. Whoever pays and gets it for her will need a current drivers licence, passport, and insurance to drive the vehicle.
She will be fined up to £1,000 for an invalid drivers licence.

That's cheap, by Stateside averages. The impound can cost hundreds a day, and the tow, unless previously arranged, cost four figures. Sometimes insurance pays it; other times the yard will put a Mechanic' Lien on the car and sell it for scrap.

Last thing an American driver wants to hear is, "we've called a tow truck."

QUESTION: Do you think, maybe, this might not have happened, if you both weren't driving on the wrong side of the road?
