Also to the other replies about them calling the cops or his company. Almost no one will be smart enough to call the company unless it was a well known company like fedex or ups and even then they'd never know who to actually talk to.
They would call the cable company to get it fix and be done with it. -
Years ago I had to back up to a dock from a busy street, there wasn't a driveway in front of the dock. Just a curb,
I tore off a mud flap on that small curb.
So I did the right thing and called breakdown to get me a new mud flap for the tractor,
Crete dinged me, not a preventable accident, but the other one...
If it happens again,I'll take both mud flaps , brackets and all and toss them in a dumpster and tell them someone must have stole them.
So think hard before doing the right thingJmans, misterG, bottomdumpin and 4 others Thank this. -
As someone once said; Choose your battles.Jmans, sealevel, bottomdumpin and 3 others Thank this. -
The next thing you did wrong was hitting and breaking the cable because you were higher than the cable which shows a total disregard for your surroundings.
The biggest thing you did wrong was showing your lack of integrity by continuing on your way.
It's always much easier in the long run, just to admit you made a mistake, seek an amicable solution, and work to resolve the conflict.
Now you not only showed your totally irresponsible resolve, but you now involved your company.
I wouldn't trust you as far as I could throw you. -
I don't know anything about a cable line, you got
The wrong person. Wasn't me;
