On Sept. 11, I was sideswiped by a car running a red light in Pensacola. Realizing the driver was not pulling over to stop, I followed him for two miles until I caught up to them. They pulled over, and four obviously illegal alien Hispanics got out of the car and came up to me.
The driver repeatedly said, "I pay cash, $200, you fix." I said no. The actual damage turned out to be $1,440. A wonderful lady, Dawn Smith, and her daughter, Sharlee, drove up. When I asked if I could use her cell phone to call the Florida Highway Patrol, she said she was behind me back at the scene, saw him fly through the red light and hit me, and would be a witness to the accident.
Thank you, ladies, so much.
The Highway Patrol came about 15 minutes later. The driver's car had expired Mississippi tags, he had no license, no insurance and no identification, and, of course, "no habla ingles."
