Call it cool or call it lame, Zac and I went to The Police concert at Usana last Saturday. Not that we are super huge fans, but we like them and thought it would be way cool to see the reunion concert. So we are driving on 5400 South in Kearns and we are like a mile away from the venue stuck in concert traffic. We are stopped at a light in our little green Ford Escort when a Dodge Durango hits us from behind. Ugh. I looked back at them and they guy at the wheel is emotionless and the girl in the passenger seat has this look of unbelief on her face while she's laughing. Weird. So we pull into a little parking lot like 10 feet away, and we are both a little bit flustered about the whole thing. We look behind us and the Durango takes off! We both couldn't believe it. The guy that was behind the Durango yelled the license plate number to us, which was nice and all... but he didn't stop to report as a witness. So we call the police and it seriously took him like 20 minutes to get there. By then, all the concert traffic was gone and we were thinking that we were going to get a spot at the back of the grass and not see a thing at the concert. So he gets there and works on the report and such, and then tells us that it will probably take a couple of weeks to find the guy. Oh, and the guy driving the Durango has to verify that the crash actually happened in order for anything to happen. Yeah right. The plate number we gave them matched up to the one they have on record for a maroon Durango, so that was a little relief. They never sent any police over at the time or anything, and I am pretty sure the guy thinks he got away with it even up to this point. It is so frustrating that we have to wait so long to find out if he even has insurance to fix our car! If not, we just have to deal with it. Our insurance will pay up to $3500, but our premium will go up. I can't believe people can get away with stuff like that! Luckily the only damage is the back bumper and our compacted trunk... the trunk door won't shut. I have had neighbors coming by asking me if they should close the trunk because it's open... I wish. Zac and my dad were able to wire it shut, so at least it's not hanging wide open. Hopefully I won't have to drive around with it that way for too long. I guess the good thing in all of this is that he was only going like 10 MPH. We could have been hurt and the car could have been totalled. Anyway, so we finally got to the concert and had a fun time. I love Usana Ampatheater... it is so pretty out there and it was fun to watch a concert on the grass. And it was a lot of fun to see all of the plastered people dance around.
Our sad little car.
The sky was so beautiful!
The band was teeny tiny. Good thing they had a big screen. And might I add that Sting is dang good looking for a 56 year old man??

You've got to be kidding me?? I am sorry for your sad little car. Hopifully they can get him. At my work we pull tag #'s all the time. It should be easy for them to find who the car is registered to and do something about it.
