Got tilt?
Ok, this may come accross as a little rant, as I respect all the police do for us, but...
As some may know, my wife (rinda_girl) was just in an accident. The police and ambulance were called, but the police didn't show up. I have heard of the police not coming to take reports for a non-injury accident, but this was clearly not the case. Ambulance responded and she was taken to the UCSF ER. UCSF took her information and facts of accident and relayed to SFPD.
(At the time, there was a question as to a hit-and-run, as one witness had told her she was hit and she was woozy and didn't really know what happened)
SFPD not only declined to come take a report (for a possible hit/run :wtf) or go interview the witness (who worked at the gas station where accident occurred), they told her to go to the station to file a report :mad Sure that's what she wants to do after getting her bell rung and breaking a clavicle, hopped up on painkillers.
After I got the bike and interviewed the witness, it was obvious there was no hit/run and it was a single vehicle accident. Hence we didn't file a report. However I still am pretty peeved that the SFPD couldn't be bothered by an injury accident, on a very busy road (19th Ave), which initially had the implications of a felony hit/run. This clearly should not have happened, or am I off my rocker? :loco
What is the protocol here, who is/was responsible and is there someone to report this to if we did not make out a report. Thanks!
