Yep, one of the front guys snapped. IIRC, it was the passneger side...? There's is a pocket above the bolt hole that traps all sorts of schmoo, and rusted the bracket bolt up good. The old bolt was fused in there, and I ended up drilled out a few milimeters to the side, and tapping new threads, and the bit wandered a little and didn't go exactly through the middle of the broken bolt. The braket is still basically in the same location as originally.


Yup same with me but on the driver's side back bolt. My damned bit wandered off center too so I drilled through half of the captive nut. Had to add a flat washer under the new nut so it would sit flush and used a nyloc nut.

Got hit and run again yesterday morning commute.
They got the worst of it ...wish I had a metal bumper, I might have been able to keep their bumper!

They ran up the off ramp during heavy traffic, had no turn signal on and jumped in front of me over the solid white line.
Left a tiny bit of white paint on the corner of my bumper, (basically wiped rite off, a lil wax will make it disappear. But they have a lot of black rubber from my sidewall on their rear bumper.
It jerked my wheel a bit.

i have one too, i think i could find a clean frame with the lice plate too. But my cars seen much worse and i dont want to deal with that drama...however, i really want to file a police report over it just to give them a reality check. THey're lucky we were going so slow, I could have easily pitted them.

Mine have caught two hit and runs on me, a meteor burning up into the atmosphere, being cut off by a Mercedes changing lanes through an intersection in front of me... Probably a number of other things I can't remember

I have been using dash cam's for around 12 years or so, saved me a few headaches for sure. Mainly ass-hats trying to blame me for accidents that were not my fault in way at all
" The other driver lies"..... A dash cam requirement, to protect you and your insurance company.
"Hit and run"..... About 80% of small accidents . The dash cam assists the police.
" 80% "...... Includes parking lot bumps.....
