 Some chick reversed into my Sprinter

On the way to work this morning, it was traffic bumper to bumper. Anyway there was this truck, one car in front of me, he tried to turn into this narrow street, but he couldn't make it so he reversed back to try again.
Anyway, as he was doing this the car in front of me decided to reverse as well eventhough she was in no danger of having truck backing onto her. I started beep the horn and shit, but she kept on coming  so I try to put the car in reverse before I manage to move she hit my bumper. Luckily I had my foot on the clutch so the car rolled back otherwise it would have done some damage.
Good thing the original bumper on the sprinter is a sturdy thing and no damage was done, I reckon if I had some sort of fiberglass bumper or after market one I think it would probably crack or damage in someway. None the less it just ruined my morning  .

similar thing happened to me but i was lucky enough to have noone behind me so i could reverse out of the way. i was on the horn the whole time and could see the chicks face in the mirror but she was looking straight ahead while she reversed about 2 meters so she could change lanes. bloody 4wd mums piss me off

No she was young, mid 20s maybe wasn't much to look at and she drive a Toyota. I mean, shit if someone beep the horn behind you while you reversing anyone with tiniest of brain would stop, but no she ignore everthing and keep reversing.

i love the ones that just reverse straight out at shopping malls and driveway without looking at whats coming. Yesterday turning into the carpark of a local mall, some guy tried to t-bone me obviously he has no idea that being on a terminating road means he has to let me turn in befor he comes out.

Is it that hard to look in the rear view mirror? I don't understand what goes through these peoples heads. *sigh* If they lived in the wild, they'd have unsuspectingly walked right into a predators mouth, and then we wouldn't have to worry about them anymore.

this happened to me but it cost me over 1,000$ some fucker little shit decided to reverse when the cops came, he got scared (illgal runs) i was on the horn i couldnt back up i had other cars behind me. and do think the dick would stop no tow bar right through the nose and no plate of the mr2... i chased him but he was being a dick on the wrong side of the rd running red lights etc. i reported him cops found him eventully and the black paint on his tow bar he got screwed for unlicenced and other fines but guess what he said i will pay you 5$ a week till its payed off and he convenatly forgot every so often i had to follow it up and get the dick to pay i maybe got $300 before i gave up this took over 1 year to get the 300... i figured i had spent more then this in time and phone calls and was not worth my while and cut my losses.

A guy in a 4wd did that to my mates ae93, the exhaust pipe put a small hole in the bumper. You wouldn't notice it unless looking straight at it and the guy offered to fix it but wasn't worth it.

The running around would have cost more in petrol and it could have easily been filled in with chewing gum. If the damage was more serious it would have been a different matter.

AW11 no Jitsu, good to see some ppl are still decent.
ive had ppl drive into me in a car park, caved in the quarter pannel but i told them not to worry about it cause the cars a shitter. i coulda been a prick and made them cough up like $800 which is what it would probably cost to fix it but why be a prick? sure if i had a new car in top condition id want compensation but not i na shitter.
and you old bastards SHOULD get off the road, and give me your celicas/hiaces
