I was leaving my grandparents house after picking up some stuff for my mom, I reversed out of the driveway and hit their neighbour's Passat.

I don't know how I didn't see it, I checked all my blind spots and was looking out the back window when I hit it.

My car has no damage, scratches or anything, but the Passat had a huge dent on the rear driver's side door.

The owner wasn't home but his mother was and said it is ok and won't go to insurance as long as we paid for repairs.

Visualization, blue glowing car is mine with yellow line showing how i hit.

A man in a late 90s Camry saw it happen, asked if I was ok and drove off.

My grandma told the neighbours it was her.

"Are you OK?" in this situation means "Are you drunk?"

Are you OK?

That's unfortunate. I did the same kinda thing not too long ago leaving my friend's house. Hit a Yukon that I don't know how I didn't see. I got some scratches and some dentage(that I'm almost done fixing) and a paint chip I need to touch up paint, but it's too cold and wet.

The Yukon just got a slightly bent panel the guy just popped back in.

Ouch! That sucks. I did something similar when I was in high school. I talked the guy out of calling the cops, and just letting me pay for the repair.

That sucks, but luckily no one was injured. Also, luckily you hit a Passat and not something too rare or unique.

Been there, did it. Paid for it. I spent more time looking over the shoulder, and still to this day will roll my driver side window down so I can crane to that side, also (which was why I was there, did that back when.)

It's a good habit for when you get the kids, pets, bunnies, etc.

We are looking for a body shop because knowing volkswagen, they will act like someone did a driveby shooting on the vehicle and overcharge them
