    Maybe, just maybe, her car got keyed.

    By a big key.


    A really big key.

    The standard wheels look good polished eh?

    Let he who has not sinned (dented a car) cast the first stone (not from the overpass silly!)

    Looks like she tinted her windows and chromed her wheels.

    But she probably could have avoided that scrape if she had ditched the OEM Integrities for wider and better tires.

    Wonder if she's a member of the Cool Chicks with Black Prius Club.

    My guess is that she was trying to back up and couldn't see out that illegally tinted front passenger window.

    If the State of California wants to put a big dent in its budget deficit, they should have the Highway Patrol do a "no tolerance" crackdown on cars with illegally tinted front windows. It has now gone to epidemic proportions in California.

    Didn't I read where you are in the Navy?
    You may end up with a problem on base too.
    I know that gate guards also don't appreciate highly tinted windows. ;)
