personally I would have gotten up and kicked in one of his headlights. What could he do?

Truly living up to your username 😛

I do it in parking lots all the time. People in their cars don't stop while I am pushing my cart, and I just hit them.

When I was in 6th or 7th grade or so, I walked between two buses when leaving school. Well, some woman was driving past them (had the STOP signs out, so its illegal to drive by until they've retracted them).

Well she wasn't expecting anyone to step out and she hit me. Not sure how fast she was going, maybe 20-25 or so, wasn't enough to knock me off my feet by any means. She had a look of horror on her face, and I just shrugged it off. She asked if I was ok and I said, yeah, I'm fine and then went home. Well two funny things here: one there is a cop who sits right around the corner (but clearly could have seen it happen). The other is that my sister even told him and he was like well you could sue her, but never asked to make a report or anything. Lets just say that cops in the town I used to live in don't exactly have a great reputation (and definitely aren't considered to be the smartest people in the world).

Oh well, only got a bruise on the arm, and I'm sure she'll think twice when driving around a school.
you don't really know how fast 20-25mph is, do you ? I'm sure it was much slower than that...
Yeah, hit me with a car at 20mph and I probably won't shrug it off!
