crazy taxi driver should be put to death

I was waiting for the red to turn green and when it did I started moving and bommb! the stupid taxi drive nail me by the driver side front wheel. I wasn't hurt. Got off and look at my wheel to be tilted inwards at an angle. I guess the damage wasn't too bad since I don't see any frame damage. but surely the front driver side wheel is messed up...
I'll go to my shop and we'll call up the insurance and his (taxi driver)'s insurance. I got 3 people that saw that I got a green light when I started moving so it should be his fault. We did call the cops and we file a report with the witnesses..

The front seens perfectly fine...I'm so sad I still don't know why this happen to me. I only got the car for two months...


so this is as of right now:

a scatched/dented up fender
left front wheel at an angle

that's about it for now, hopefully it won't be too much to get her back to normal...

if the wheel is bent, you have some suspension problems. Possibly a damaged control arm or even the struts. Hope the whole ordeal is as painless as possible.

taxi drivers suck!!!

i got into conflicts with 2 of them last night, one tried to pass me turning left into a driveway (as we were turning he swung around the outside) the other flew up behind me and flashed his lights at me cause i was going the speed limit and he wanted to go faster and he started to tailgate me, so i brake checked him, that pissed him off really bad so he swung around the outside and gave me the finger then cut in front of me and tried to brake check me (all while there were passengers) then at the light we were both making a left into a driveway and he proceded to make a u-turn and purposefully stopped halfway through it in the middle of the road so i would hit him, i had enough distance and was going slow enough that i just went right around him
