When i was turning left to the entrance at the left line with indicate, a yellow car from the right line behind me suddenly drove out fast and turned left at the same time and bumped into my car. It rushed straight into the entrance and I drove in and park my car to the left side of drive way not to block the entry.
While I was parking there, a woman came down from that car, had a look at her car and immediatly jumped back into her car and drove away without saying anything. It is a yellow car with black strip on its body and got my car's paints along its left back side.
It was happended just in a few seconds that I was quite shocked. There were other drivers and people who walked nearby at that time. So if there is someone here witness this, please contact me. Thanks a lot!

For the month of November, we want to raise awareness and work together to end all forms of violence including family harm, elder and child abuse, sexual assault, gang violence, and more. These victimisations affect us all and can have lasting effects that spill into our everyday lives including at work and school.

To do your part this month, perhaps consider supporting a women’s refuge or work with Police in your area to host an info night on how to identify elder or child abuse in your community. This month’s campaign also coincides with White Ribbon Day on 25 November which is an internationally celebrated day that aims to prevent violence towards women.

Let us know how you’re spreading the ‘It’s Not OK’ message in your home or in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
