A few nights ago my neighbour came across the street to inform me that another vehicle had hit my parked truck at a speed of about 50 km per hour. I’m not really sure if injuries occurred, as the driver quickly backed up, turned the headlights lights off to conceal the licence plate, and sped off into the night. Although my Ford F150 truck is sturdy, some parts of truck were jolted ahead more than a foot, while other parts remained in place. My neighbour heard the collision and noted the hit and run driver was in a minivan. The police offered several comments, however the chances of catching this person was slim to none. I couldn’t help but think about the personal violation and the personal cost to me based on someone else’s actions. While the “hit” may not have been intentional, the “run” was definitely on purpose. The next morning I searched the neighbourhood for a damaged van, but the effort was fruitless. I was almost dizzy from circling all the streets and courts.
