Someone stole my cars wheel at Tampa Hard Rock (1 Viewer)

Anthony Martino said:
Good news, bad news. They do have the vehicle that stole my wheel on camera

But, the vehicle was stolen in another county and currently it is unknown who stole the car

It's going to their detective division for further investigation

I have so many questions. Did they put the tire on their car? Did the tire they put on yours come from their car? If so, how does someone drive 3 17" and one 19" rims? Did they let you see the footage? Where was the car stolen from? Does Santa really exist?

The 17" they gave me fit my car and I drove on it for a couple days. My tire obv fit their car

I have been home sick with the plague all week, so I have not seen footage, just spoke with the officer on the phone.

I was told the car was stolen from another county, but we have multiple counties nearby easily accessible, not sure which one it was

Told me I would have to call Monday to speak with the detectives
 
This still needs like 673 more crazy twists before it can even start to be a contender for “Local Florida Man” story on the local Six O’clock News.

Like: the car was stolen by two octogenarians and a Belgian wearing duck costumes, who were yodeling Romanian drinking songs while pelting bystanders with Piggly Wiggly weekly circulars and day-old funnel cakes, and who left a bag full of bat guano and a tricycle at the scene of the crime.

Darn thought I read the car was stolen from a different *country*. Hope they catch the guy and you get your tire back!

They're still investigating, I'm sure all of these details and more will make themselves known soon enough!

Florida is a no-fault state. Already booked my repair monday and a rental

Florida no fault law applies to personal injury, not vehicular damage. If you got his info and/or filed a police report, you can file a claim. The truck driver's insurance will pay if they find he was at fault.

Been there, done that recently when my wife was in a parking lot fender bender.

That was in response to gopher saying I could "gin up an insurance claim" which I took to mean faking an injury lol

While he was illegally parked, I had the greater responsibility as the one in motion. I'm out a 1k deductible plus 250 in rental and I deserve it, I was at fault

Understood, I read it as just file a claim but you were closer to what "gin up" means. Words are hard.

My wife had a low speed collision in a parking lot a few months ago. They were amiable, both said "no fault" and exchanged information.

A couple days later, our insurance company contacted us to let us know that the other driver had filed a claim directly against our policy. They investigated, and based largely on he said she said, paid out the claim. I was pissed.

In 20 years in the insurance industry, I have never heard these words... I can't comprehend their meaning.

I got you bud. I have experience translating.

"While beep beep was hunkered down in a no no spot, three wheel zoomed honk honk makes no bad go. Sad three wheel beep beep."

Bottom line, always call the police.

That's what I told my wife after this fiasco.

Before this we had a combined total of four accidents over 30+ years of driving each - three times the police were called, and in the fourth one there was literally zero damage to the tank I was driving, and the other guy (whose rust bucket Beetle was destroyed) practically begged me not to report it. I presumed he was broke and likely uninsured, and I cut him a break.

on the local Buffalo radio morning show on Thursday mornings. They play a game called OTF. That stands for Ohio , Texas or Florida. They play some crazy news shit and you have to guess the state it happened in. This might make it.

A local station here in Tampa does a "Florida or not Florida" thing with news stories
