Weird, I was hit intentionally on 167 some years back, ended up going backwards off the side of the freeway into some trees. Eight witnesses called to report the assault including a metro bus driver. When police responded I asked if any effort would be made to find the other driver and was told “ this isn’t CSI Los Angeles”
