But seriously, do you have and friends that are cops or ex cops.... someones parents that are cops?? Im sure they can help you out if I were in the US i could do it.... but I dont have access to that system here.Your best bet is to just call the cops... sounds like you just want to take care of it yourself though... try this site http://www.licenseplatehunter.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotCarl Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Are people in the world really this ignorant? Yes, i knew a kid who got wasted got in his car and hit a parked car IN HIS APARTMENT COMPLEX. As if that weren't bad enough, when he fled the scene he left not only his bumper but the license plate that was attached to it. Fucking idiot.

Akula Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 The police can look up plates, and if you are a victim of a hit and run and got the plate.... CALL THE POLICE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to refer to our Dear Sir who is looking for the plate info... And without saying it, I was trying to say what every one else has said.

GreenZJ Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 I know Im new to the site and all, but isnt this kind of common sense here? Even with a name you cant do anything legally eithout a police report. Why wouldnt you just call the police? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grease monkey Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 you don't call the police if you want to kill the person......... j/k but seriously, police are dumb, and even with plate number they'd never do shit. They're too busy sitting on the side of the freeways trying to catch speeders and drunks to give a fuck about anything else. Theres an old saying..... If you want something done right, do it yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bam Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 hmm,so what will you do once you get this person's info? Just curious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenZJ Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 hmm,so what will you do once you get this person's info? Just curious... Thats what Im wondering. Getting a police report made and either taking him to court, or atleast getting insurance money out of him, will get you much further than a good old ass beating will, well when it comes to fixing your car that is.

AngryBMW Posted August 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Obviously the police have been called. I figured that went without saying. I was looking for information as I was in a very similar situation and the cops were unable to locate the driver of the vehicle. I was hoping he may be able to ID the person operating the car if he was the owner also. Thanks for the one helpful post. -Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRed Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Ok, so you contacted the police and made a report, that is good. Are you putting a claim in on your insurance? If so, don't worry about it, they will try to find the owner of the car and will sue them for the damages. If not, well then you will just have to see what the police will do. I have never done it, but I have heard you can go to a DMV and they "may" look up information from the license plate number. Not sure how much it is for the search, but I do believe they will do it.

Casper Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Hit and runs in Ohio are tricky. Unless you can ID the driver, the police cannot charge the owner of the vehicle for it. There has to be proof they were driving. Now you can go after their insurance for damages, but if you're looking for other justice......

Like I said I went through this situation myself (twice) and received no assistance from the police. I ended up doing my own research to track down the last bitch that hit and ran me. And was still unable to get her or her insurance to pay up. -Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99FLHRCI Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Same thing happened to me. My car got hit in my driveway. I chased the guy and got his plate number. The cops didn't do a thing. I even still have his license plate number stuck in my rear bumper. They said they couldn't prove it was him even though I could ID him.
