Somebody hit my mailbox yesterday!!!!

Tweet

I heard a loud thud outside my house around 9.30pm last night. I was too afraid to open the door to look outside (who knows what's outside, right?) so I asked my husband to look. He turned on the porch lights and looked outside but he said he can't see anything out of the ordinary. But this morning just before he went to work, he discovered that someone had knocked over ours and our neighbour's mailboxes! That explains the loud thud. But because our mailbox is all the way at the end of a long driveway, my husband couldn't see it last night. It was definitely a car cos' some parts of the car was all over our yard! Both our mail boxes were crushed! Tire tracks were on our driveway. It was some scary driver! We suspect it's someone who's probably drunk or fell asleep on the wheel. We had a police officer come over. But there's nothing much he can do. He also said there has not been any other reports of suspicious activity in the area last night. Can you imagine if that had happened during the day when my neighbour or I were out getting the mail??!! That is so dangerous. Do you think this is something that homeowner's insurance covers? I doubt we would even try to make a claim as it's not a big expense and the damage is small but it's just really inconvenient. I have to wait for my husband to come home tonight to fix the mailbox. Urrgghh!! Stupid driver.
