I almost did a bad thing today.
Something I would hate to happen to me.
I was leaving the work car park and I clipped a car parked on the end of a row. It was dark and my windows were still a little misted up so didn't spot the black sports car. I immediately stopped and got out to look to see if my car was damaged. I couldn't see any damage, so I made the assumption that there would also be no damage to the other car. I almost drove off when I saw a collegue and someone else looking at the other car.
My only thought was "Bollocks!"
I returned to the scene of the 'crime' and did leave my contact details.
This has made me question whether I am an honest person. I could so easily have driven off assuming no damage - leaving the other person with a scratched bumper. Part of me knows that I was actually too lazy to go over and check the other car, if someone else hadn't seen or begun looking at the other car, I probably would have driven off without leaving details.
I know I have now done the right thing so does that mean I can ignore the fact I almost did the wrong thing?
Now I get to look forward to a difficult phone call in the morning followed by insurance company nonsense.
