My friend said to go after the idiot, even if it costs you money and time. Get a PI and a lawyer and find this piece of s**t. People need to be accountable or held accountable.
unfortunately I had a similar experience. I was backing into a charging spot and had stopped and some one on a bicycle ran into the box of the truck and left a dent. I used PDR for around $300 if my memory is correct. I talked to the guy and could clearly see it was no use trying to get anything out of him as I doubt he had any assets.
