Someone hit and broke the glass in my driver's side mirror while I was working at the store today. Didn't realize it until I was a couple blocks down the street and noticed the mirror was out of adjustment.
Assuming you have comprehensive coverage on your insurance, that covers things like hit and runs and vandalism. Its deductible might be significantly lower than collision. Worth asking. Also, cameras are everywhere these days. This wasn't near a traffic light, was it?
re: near traffic light... sorry.. noticed you were in parking in a shopping plaza. Depending on the owner of that plaza, coverage for video might be limited.
