Message:: [QUOTE="Arctic_fox, post: 11669815, member: 187326"]Playing devils advocate here as per usual, especially after the OP edited his post. We only have his word it was "just a tail light". Something doesnt pass the sniff test. If it was just a plastic round light then no big deal most of us would be somewhere between annoyed and pissed, but would settle for some harsh words and demanding he give his info incase he tried to claim it was our fault. Then we would make him give us a new light and leave it at that. The fact the police were called also supports this was a lot more serious then a single tail light. But im wondering if he clipped a pickup and crushed in the rear of said pickup or ripped up the back of a trailer or even his own and the other driver is doing a CMA type thing because he doesnt want to be blamed for the 5 foot long gouge in the side of the drivers trailer. Also consider most lights on these trucks are recessed pretty deep so its hard to break them.... Regardless to the OP i would say it depends. Your being trained, your trainer wasnt training you. My guess is if the damage really was just a semi trailer tail light and damage is low say sub $250 they will slap you on the wrist and you will be fine. If you mashed up a pickup or did a ton of damage then things are likely to go bad for you.[/QUOTE]
