Nice Parking Job

Last night was a beautiful summer night to be riding the horse. I was in a good mood and was almost completely stress free so work went well. Near the end of the evening ( 12:30 am) my partner and I were sitting on our mounts in the grass and were bullshitting when we saw a female attempting to parallel park. As she backed up she totally hit into the car behind her. My first impression was that she was drunk. As she was finishing up her stellar parking job I decided it was time for a social experiment. I wanted to see what she did when she exited the car. Would she look and check to see if there was any damage to the other car? Of course not. Would she leave a note on the other car? Hell no. She got out of car and attempted to walk away as if nothing happened but she failed to see the 2 cops on horseback watching the whole thing. We confronted her and really began to grill her. She said she was a schoolteacher and she was sorry. So we told her we were sorry but we would be issuing her a ticket for leaving the scene of an accident. She tried to plead with us as we wrote down her and the other car's information. We then put a note on the other car telling them if they wanted to make an accident report to call the station. We then told the woman we weren't giving her a ticket and that she could leave. We were just bluffing her to make her sweat a little and realize that she did the wrong thing. When a ticket is given the hope is that it will cause the driver to change their driving habits but tonight I think our method worked better. What do you think?
