Not even going to turn it into my insurance.
Didn't get a police report as I didn't want to get a ticket or get stuck paying for the damage I inflicted to the poor fence I hit.
Just going to bite the bullet and pay out of pocket. Thankfully I have a good friend who owns a body shop.
Lesson learned

Just think of the poor soul that awakens to a destroyed fence
and no one to pay for it. Shame on you.
I guess if you had hit someone or another vehicle, it would be hit and run?
Its the same thing in my book.
Go back and pay the poor soul whose fence you tore up with
your semi conscious driving state...
I dont see any lessons being learned except how to skirt your responsibilities.

Glad it was not my fence you creamed.

I'm glad that you are okay, but now you need to go make it okay with that fence owner.

Actually it was a fence around a commercial property. Their insurance will cover the repairs so it wasn't some poor soul waking to a destroyed fence.
Plus I didn't completely knock it down it was a wrought iron fence, it simply bent a couple posts.
Thanks for the judgemental replies though

yea, insurance thats the ticket
Let those premiums go up...
Put yourself in that guys shoes and tell me
again how its OK because it was a commercial
property so no one got hurt?
Now I know who is partially to blame for my high insurance premiums...

why do people bother being judgmental. OP is a grown man and im pretty sure at this point hes not gonna change just cuz some people online wanna judge him. I would have done the same thing and drove off. Good luck with your repair.

It has nothing about being judgmental, its about doing the right thing. There is a reason why states have hit and run offenses.
