You're fine. If there was no damage then what could he come after you for?

you know for a fact that he didn't remember your plate?

i dont think he even looked at them. he said its alright it doesnt look to bad. which lead me to believe he didnt really care. but he took the picture of it which is what is concerning me.

If he only has a picture of the damage and does not have your info, you have nothing to worry about.

theoretically though if he actually did write my plate down and then tried to go after me how could he prove i was even involved in the accident if i didnt give him my information? he could have just gone out and written down a random persons plate.

He would have a hard/impossible time doing so.

No, I'm not sure about it. I wasn't there and I have no idea what really happened. I'm basing my opinion on what you've said. I would have no way of knowing what this guy will or won't do but it's likely he will do nothing. I'm going to punch out of this thread now because you're borderline trolling at this point.

He's probably ex-special forces or ex-intelligence. He memorized your license plate number Jason Bourne style and is currently running it through his high tech supercomputer manned by no less than 3 of his counterparts. He is probably searching for your friends and family, looking for any weaknesses he can exploit. He will then systematically take them all out one by one while you watch in horror, unable to do a thing. Because he's a ghost. Then, in the very end, he will come for you. And you will never see him coming.
