Handicap placard isn't mine, I was running errands with my Grandma. I turned in from the opposite side of the street. Backing up was easy.

If you look around at a lot of the embellishments in the sidewalks and on the old buildings, "V" was used as a "U" back in the day. That is why "W" is pronounced that way. It's two Vs, aka....two Victorian U

^ Yup, the V for U is very common on older university campuses (and newer ones in California that try to be more "authentic"). The letter V preceded the letter U.

This is a parking Fail. Lady Pulled in waay too early. Funny thing is, there were no cars in front of mine. So there should be no reason to hit my car. Happened last week

Damage wasn't that bad. It was only estimated at $3600.00 lol. I'm glad she had insurance.

The lexus is my car. It was parked. The other is a suv. You can see she pulled in too early. Her car was stuck on top if mine and It took my coworkers 45 minutes to get it off. I wasnt even there. This was pic text to me. She ripped out my headlight, ripped bumper, crushed fender and whatever held everything. She didnt even have much damage.
