My car got vandalized car, got, vandalized

shutterbug

This morning I found my car has big scratches around my car, on every door and fuel door...horrible!  newer cars around me got the same thing, even cars on streets a couple blocks from my home have them..feel sorry for those Mercedes, BMWs, etc...apparently, the older cars are all fine...

I live in Van but close to Burnaby...I guess this is probably related to the 400 cars keyed at Silvercity Coquitlam...was there no security at Silvercity?  It takes quite awhile to scratch 400 cars...

What a waste of time and money...  once again it shows how weak the policing is in our city...

$300 down the drain...

No, my car is not an expensive car but it's quite new (4 months).  There's another brand new Accord got scratched too.  I think that one is only a week's old...

On the more expensive cars MB & BMW, they get scratched if they "look" sort of new.  Saw a MB CLK500, BMW Z4...

So is this slowly spreading into Vancouver now?  This is a cross-municipal crime...I hope the police will look into it somewhat...sigh...no hope!

I wonder what kind of people would do this...it take awhile to walk around the block and scratch the doors on both sides of many cars...

Maybe the body shops are dropping in business so they hired some highschool kid to do all this????   LOL..."yum mau lun"

yes, it's been filed online, which is useless because it said clearly that no investigation will be done...LOL  what a joke...

ICBC on the other hand will lose quite a bit of money in this stupid thing already....I think ICBC should track down this guy instead of the police lor...LOL

It's easy for this guy to keep on doing this without getting caught..the damage would be huge...and the police will still do nothing?  Like Kira in HK?  LOL  challenging the police force with success?

Any other LYK got the same thing on their car???

I just found out this morning that you can do it online for small stuff

https://vancouver.ca/citizenreport_wa/

I filed to both police and ICBC la...and got the ICBC claim number over the phone...apparently they don't need to see my car first.  I can now take the car to a list of bodyshops that they gave me.  I guess I'll wait a few weeks before I repaint it...scare of being scratched again....

Nikonian, I'm quite stressed out lately, lots of stuff going on right now...and I need to solve them one by one...sigh...try my best la.  Btw, I imagine there are at least 500 cars got keyed in these couple of weeks including the incident at Silvercity Coq...so 500 * $1000, more like half a million!!!

now...I'm worry that my other cars will get scratched...sigh

Just like someone said here....buy a white marker and draw lines on your doors to confuse the vandals...

I'd not be surprised if it spreads to downtown...

I really hope ICBC will catch the guy!

really?  so every year it starts all over from 1?  that doesn't make sense wor...isn't it suppose to be a unique number for each case?

sigh...and we're living in a world's #1 or 2 city...
