Not my usual spot beside Finemundo but across the street. My spidey senses were tingling..just enough so the guy in a gray\silver Chrysler Sebring...license plate YFV-5523 backed into my bike. By some fluke no damage except for a scuffed stator cover. I saw the bike rock and then the guy took off as I was running across the street. Anything I can do here? Anyway of getting the address?

If they run the tags, it's possible his insurance company would end up paying anyhow. And you must not ride a Harley..because if you did, you would *definately* call the cops and get a report..a teeny tiny scratch on a Harley would easilly be double or triple your deductable. ;-) -aki _ _ _ _ .-.-.=\-. .-.-.=\-. .-.-.=\-. .-.-.=\-.

I'm pretty sure you can call one in. It's been a while since I got hit in a hit and run, but I'm pretty sure I called and filed a report over the phone. Then, a cop (detective, I think) went to the site (it was a commercial vehicle) and confronted them. He inspected the vehicle and checked their logs. They had apparently doctored the logs because they did not show the truck in DC that day. My insurance ended up paying for the repairs, but I don't remember my deductible at the time. Of course, my vehicle wasn't driveable without the repairs - the truck had driven up over my right front fender. While I was driving the car in Thomas (or was it Scott?) Circle...

That is where the infraction took place. I have MD tags, and the truck that hit me was from VA. All that mattered was that it happened in DC.
