Report
BEWARE: Their driver of an industrial-built Ford 550 backed up down an alley at a fast speed and nailed me in my car while in my driveway so hard it blew out my back windshield. A passenger was with him and also was not on lookout while backing up this vehicle that is huge and hard to see behind. I have medical bills, car repairs, emotional stress and my insurance raised. Not fair, I want compensation.
