Need help filing a complaint on another driver
So tonight i was coming home, doing 42 in a 45, and this guy in a Lexus IS250 passes me in a double solid line road with a hill. Well coming on the other side of that hill was on coming traffic. At the last second he pulls in front of me just, and I can't stress this enough, JUST missing a head on collision with the on coming traffic. I had to slam on my brakes just to let him i, otherwise he would of had the pit manuever put on him. He continued to drive well over 45, even when the road went down to 35. I caught up to him at the traffic light and asked him what the **** he was thinking. All he had to say to me was why don't I go **** my mother, and took off. His car had three other passengers in it. The only thing I got besides the Maroon colrd Lexus IS250 is part of his license plate which is CJD or CDJ and a New Jersy plate. He is also of hispanic or Italian race, judging by his accent he seemed to be italian or north jersian/new york.
Now my question is, can the police pursue finding this individual with only partial license plate, how do I file a complaint. I seriously want to let this guy have what he deserves in the court system. please help me out here guys, I've had enough with people who not only drive irratically, but then thin they aren't in the wrong, and feel they don't need to apologize. |
Contact local pd, they prob won't care but it should make you feel a little better.
|
file a police report with whatever town it happened in. hopefully he travels threw there frequently.
|
So they couldn't issue a ticket or court date in the mail, they have to catch him?
|
1) use sledge on front fender
2) call police, report hit and run 3) ???? 4) arrest |

did you speed to catch back up to him? how come you didnt pull over and let him go by?
|

Meh, just let it go. You did the right thing letting them in. If someone's determined to drive around you, the worst thing any one can do is speed up to not let them in.
This time tomorrow, you'll be over it and moved on with your life. |
Gee, someone from north jersey driving like a douche nozzle? LIES!
|
42 in a 45?.... OLD MAN!!!

As far as pulling over, I shouldn't have to do anything for anybody behind me unless it's an emergency, and his pulling into the other lane wasen't exactly slow and smooth, it was more like he was taking me on the inside at Darlington pulling over into the lane. If he was in such a hurry, he should of left earlier, or taken RT.9. The only thing he did right was use his turn signal lol. I'm still pissed, and I'm probably going to the station today to file.

I would have called 911 and reported it if it was that big a deal. I've done it before. Told them the make, model, some of the plate, and direction it was headed on a specific road.
|
WBT, I thought about that when I got home, that was my bad, I just felt at teh time instead of continuing on creating more tension on the situation (i.e. following him at his speeds, and/or possible accident like what happened to me last year) I felt i'd rather go to the station and file.

ok so....
you need a plate number, discription of car (to double check u have the correct plate number) and be able to ID the driver. you respond to PD HQ and sign a complaint, you must then go to court and back up your complaint. as far as calling 911, its not techinicly a life or death emergency, so depending on the 911 operator it could be totaly disregarded, or what we do... get the general information and put out a general broadcast to all the police cars, but then again like someone mentioned, the police officer has to witness an infraction to be able to issue a summons |
we could all file complaints about this driver for the next 3 weeks :lol: that'll get them after him
|
It will become a "He Said/ She Said" where you both have a different side to the story in court. He also has several witnesses in the car with him, and if they are his friends, they will back up a story that you are the POS and not him.
Waste of time to try to get him into court. Be thankful he didn't screw your car and let it go. Just my :2cents: |
An officer does need to witness it, I work as a parking jockey for a police station and there's been plenty of near accidents, light taps of cars on pedestrians stuff like that and when an officer comes and hears the complaint from someone I've heard directly "If I didn't see it I can't ticket it"
Can't do much here Jeff, sorry. |
if thats the case then why do they have signs for the number to report aggressive/bad driving?
|
The aggressive driving number is for you to call immediately after seeing an infraction. When you give the police the make/model and road you are on they will dispatch available units in the area to try and catch said vehicle in the act.
