The gap was huge and he was already 3/4 out of my lane, then as I got closer to him the dumb f*ck old man just stopped and took a step back towards my car and whacked himself on my passenger side mirror and as I looked back at him on the mirror he theatrically fell to the ground scattering all his belongings which were styrofoam plastic and empty bottles. Aware of this modus, I stopped then the old man got up, sprinted faster than Usain Bolt to my window and his first words were "Bayaran mo gamot ko. Bayaran mo gamot ko" - that just confirmed that this was a modus so after I "kindly" told him to go away, he just walked away, unphased, as if nothing happened. The guy was barefoot, dressed in dirty clothing and one of his eyes were completely white.
I'd bet big money that he most likely tried that again on some cars behind me. But the thing with this guy is I think he's a sole trader (not part of a modus clan/group), a slightly professional one at that because as soon as I arrived at the parking lot I discovered red stains in the region where HE hit my car and the red stains were NOT blood but it was more like ketchup or some form of red sauce.
Just don't be fooled by these low-life's. The immediate chain of thought is - Oh sh*t I hit someone. Is he okay. Was it my fault. People are looking: if I run it looks like a hit and run.... If you're innocent no need to hide, just give the person your peace of mind verbally. No need to resort to violence. Every case is different but violence gets you nowhere especially if you're the innocent party.
