The mail room of my apartment is attached to the parking garage, so you have to cross where cars go by to get to it if you're on the opposite end of it. Before you walk into the street there is a closed area blocked by yellow cylinders meant to keep cars from hitting the mail area. Also creates some separation from the cars and pedestrians. I walk in and grab my mail from the cubbie and start looking at it while walking out.

I guess the guy didn't see me walking out until he was almost into me because before i knew it, i feel the plastic front of his car ram into my legs. Good thing he hit the brakes hard because it didnt make me fall over or hit the ground at all. I mostly just recoiled back a bit and leaned into his hood with my hand. Luckily it was one of those old Toyota Camrys and not something bigger or has less plastic. For something that was going fairly slowly from i could tell, it made a shit ton of noise. A girl screamed at the top of her lungs. Dude apologized profusely but it was partly my fault as well for not looking both ways even in a parking garage. I told everyone i was fine and we went about our evening.

Half an hour later and i still feel fine. I checked my legs immediately and i walk with no pain or hesitation.

Shit, gotta be more careful out here man. I'm definitely not prepared for an assassination attempt.

Might be sore tomorrow

Some years ago I was hit by a car while on my bicycle. I felt nothing at all until the next day, then my back hurt like hell for most of the day. Was fine by the third day

Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not after you.

Damn man. I'm glad you are ok. Thankfully nothing came about and it's nice that the guy wasn't an asshole about it. Some people are just ridiculous when it comes to things like that.

Thanks yall. Judging from his face he was just as shook as I was. I stared at him for a hot second and then realized no one would get anything out of this with an argument.
