The car was damaged by hooligans. Your actions
What if you come in the morning to your car and found a new scratch on its side? Logic tells us what the "result" is. But if the car crushed the hood, the glass (mirrors) was broken, separated by the sides and the lens was broken?
A bully, by the way, can be anyone. The old lady from the sixth entrance declared war on motorists, a neighbor with foreign cars, who believes that a piece of asphalt in front of his front (unfortunately, the entrance) belongs only to him, drunk teenagers, worries about the defeat of his favorite team … in any case, leave this without supervision – even if the attacker is not found.
If your car has been damaged (heavily damaged, a punctured wheel or just scratches), you must first take a picture of all the damage and contact the police. Important: not the traffic police, but the police. At the same time, the car was hit (moving) is impossible – even if it was dragged to another place, blocking traffic in the yard.
The policemen who arrived at the scene recorded the incident. You, in turn, write a statement, which will indicate the requirement to check the records from surveillance cameras for the period and report a significant amount of damage.
If the person who caused the damage to your car is found, this is enough to go to court with a civil lawsuit. If the damage does not exceed, you should apply to the Magistrate’s Court, if the district or city is 50 thousand conventional units.
The application must indicate the amount of damages. How to do it? If you have punctured tires, go to the site and find out how much the same ones cost (new or used – decide for yourself). If the car is seriously damaged and you can’t determine if you caused the damage, order an independent examination. The money spent on this, include in the claim. This will include an inspection of the vehicle (if one has been done), for the services of an expert for any costs you may have incurred. At the same time, is it possible to initiate a criminal case? Why?
If the damage to the car is minor, then this is not a reason to refuse to search and identify scammers. Yes, the police can refuse to open a criminal case. But it turns out that this case is not the only thing that happened in this yard? Then the police will have to investigate.
If hazing is repeated, there is reason to think about additional protection for the car. For example, installing additional cameras or a DVR that responds to movement. Place the car in the parking lot in a conspicuous place (but so that it does not interfere with the movement or passage of people). So he ended up in the zone of intercoms, cameras or other cameras installed in the yard.
