So this is the second time we have been involved in an accident in the last 2 months - AND BOTH TIMES HUBBY WAS SITTING SOMEWHERE ELSE - MINDING HIS OWN BUSINESS !
First time - having a beer at the carwash while vehicle being washed/cleaned. Drunk gringo in a Hummer careens through the parking lot - and hits the vehicle.
Second time - getting a shave at the local barberia - Dominican and his GF, on a moto, smack ( big time ) into the back of the parked vehicle.
Good news bad news. Accident #1 - Carwash guys TOTALLY took care of everything - body work, paint, todo. Accident #2 - guy and GF pick themselves up, give US a few dirty looks ( what the hell was your legally parked car doing there ? ) dusted themselves off, and away they went. While at least 3 Dominican witnesses looked on, amused.
Talked to a Dominican friend today - he agreed with us on accident #2 : calling the cops and trying to do anything through Insurance company - just costs us MORE money.
Another day in paradise.:smoke:
