Some guy did an illegal u-turn while I was turning right and I had to run into the sidewalk to avoid him. This left me with a puncture in my tire. The ******* drove off like nothing happened, so I called 911. The cop finally came and told me that if there was no collision, then it's all my fault. It would be like if I ran over a nail and filed a police report because of the damage to my tire. He also recommend that I didn't file a report, because all it will do is raise my insurance rates.

I don't know if that's true or not. I'm guessing half of it was his laziness of not wanting to file a report. I'm not too fond of Knoxville cops.

Oh and apparently there was witness who dialed 911 before I did and reported the incident.
