I doubt it.

My answer was more an empathy response for alt+f4.

One thing I used to keep in all of my cars was a disposable camera. That way, I could take pictures of the scene before cars got moved. I no longer do this since everyone in the family has a cell phone that takes pictures. I would be SOL on days I don't take the home detention work release monitor with me.

Even still, a camera may not be so helpful in alt+f4's case. Taking a picture before an accident would require the level of clairvoyance needed to avoid it in the first place -- or a dash camera worthy of the police chase shows.

By the way, the only picture I ever took was for a $35 parking ticket. I spent four hours in court until my case was called. My time is worth more than $9/hr. If only I had known.

That sucks alt+f4, I was lucky in that the person in front of me was still moving. The girl that hit me wasn't watching at all. Imagine looking up just checking to see if the person behind you is going to stop, and you see the side of her head. Was my reaction. I also wasn't holding the brake for dear life, so the Nissan that hit me kinda pushed me out of the way. Instead of trying to push my rear apron into my back seat. I think I kind of bounced off of her. Also, I tried to be nice and I didn't say, "I looked in the mirror and didn't even see her looking at me." The report said I braked and she didn't have enough time to stop. Next time I'll state exactly what happened from my view point.

yeah i know i should have persued now. I was 18 at the time and didnt know any of this. I didnt get a police report or any notification that i was partially at fault. so it went a year and a half before i found out. and then they said i was SOL. My dad was a cop and should have known this and he iddnt tell me.
