Next time call the cops and report it as a hit and run by USPS, the cops will charge and arrest the postal driver and USPS would solve this issue faster. A similar thing happened to my friend when a postal delivery vehicle sideswiped his parked car and kept going, everything was caught on dashcam. He reported the hit and run to police then postal. It was very easy for the cops to find out who was driving using the location and postal vehicle number, the postal driver got charged with hit & run and suspended from USPS. He got reimbursed in repairs after a few weeks.
They do, my aunt got into a minor accident with a USPS vehicle like the one in this video. Within 20 minutes they had a representative on site to take pictures along with police to take a report. The USPS driver made a u-turn in the middle of the street without indicating, my aunt was about to go around and hit the side of the USPS vehicle. The police report put my aunt at fault.
This happened to me early this year. The postal worker didn't drive off. My ring camera captured everything. His supervisors came out, took a report. And I have yet to be paid. USPS is self-insured so of course they dragged the investigation out. I had my insurance pay and I'm waiting to be reimbursed by USPS

That always sounds good but look at how much money he had to spend in the meantime. It showed he lost time from work, he had to spend almost $600 on a rental car, he lost that deductible on his original car. Believe me, in the Bay Area it's going to cost you $2.50 an hour for even the most basically competent attorney. So you have to weigh whether or not you can handle this yourself or whether you are willing to spend another $10,000. And here's the thing, just because you win a case against somebody or in this case an entity, it doesn't mean they have to pay your legal fees. People assume that is always the case but it isn't. I was a legal secretary for a long time, believe me people would be shocked at what lawyers can and cannot do for you.

Well it has already been pointed they aren’t federally funded with tax payer loot since the 1970s, but what you said is still very wise. If you don’t file charges on a federal employee they can keep using their privileges in that position to cover up their crimes rather than showing they do not have the integrity to continue in their position. It is in the best interest of the NATION not just for you, to file charges on them especially when they committed felonies on video at that. To not file on them is to let your country down of which you share as citizen. What hurts one, hurts us all. Federal employees have to be held to a higher standard, you commit crime against the public, not only should they immediately be investigated, but also indicted and handed a federal prison sentence. Don’t get into a government position and think you can commit a single crime and not have to pay dearly for it as that is close to treasonous and traitorous to use OUR power against the people. The people should demand no tolerance for government employees that commit crimes at any level. Lose your job, disqualify them from ever holding another government position and go to prison. We are way too lax on letting corruption run rampant in our government. It’s the people’s government, it’s not owned by those who are serving as servants to the people. But we are not tough on government corruption at all and yet the nation is constantly bellyaching about all the political corruption but the people do nothing about it.
You should ALWAYS pursue criminal charges. THAT'S HOW CHANGES OCCUR. These events will keep happening to other innocent people until somebody finally files charges! It's so frustrating when victims choose not to pursue legal actions, because it's saying "You're off the hook. You can go do it to someone else."
All our government agencies need a rehaul. Many more real customer service agents, better websites, building upgrades, more hours. We need to put our money back into America and not into foreign territory wars...
I worked for an answering service for a time and I can confirm they totally, and knowingly do this; avoiding telling people they need to file forms and go through proper channels, make themselves constantly unavailable, ect. The worst part is that it works.
Having worked for the post office years ago, this doesn't surprise me at all. Working for them was total chaos, I've never experienced so much rampant unprofessionalism in my life, all the way from their mail couriers to their management staff.

I trained as a USPS driver in Chattanooga, TN back in early 2023 but resigned within a few days. I did not like the job. But during training, the instructor taught that when you dismount from the vehicle, you first set the parking brake, you turn the front wheels towards the curb, you shut off the engine, then you dismount. This driver did none of this. He left the vehicle running, the parking brake was off. He violated every rule of dismounting from the vehicle. We were taught that it would result in immediate termination if found out by the USPS. That is why the employee quit before he could be fired. He took shortcuts and ended his career as a result. This was absolute stupidity at its finest.
That was my training as well. I did my first 360 and at the end of the 5 days off I turned bldg keys in along with my resignation. The place was being run by a short-man-syndrome PM who gave the supervisor position to the most incompetent front clerk he had. She was ok as a front clerk sup, but had no common sense and no respect for anyone. All because of an affair and because he could manipulate her in many ways since she didn’t know the job and he was a “trust me” guy so she trusted him. I wasn’t about to keep running a hub (serving about 20 offices in multiple cities and counties) everyday for them morons one more day. I they didn’t even tell me they had given the position which is the other reason I resigned, because I knew they were not above “forgetting” to tell me I got it, and when I did not go in (because I didn’t t know I had to; I wasn’t on the next schedule) just say I abandoned the job. So I made it easy for them and for me. I rather make $19 somewhere I don’t have to stress about ridiculousness from grown folk like they’re toddlers.
@@tainadelcaribe Thanks for your reply. I saw the writing on the wall early and resigned. $20.00 per hour coupled with all the scrutiny and fear of losing my job in an instance was not worth it.
I'm a carrier, and we are supposed to report it no matter how minor the accident is. One time I knocked over a mailbox, I reported it to management, and I couldn't drive for a week until I went to postal driver school. The post office paid to fix the mailbox.
Watch the whole video. He did file a police report and decided not to pursue criminal charges. Now you don't have to watch the whole video. You're welcome
This is why you file the police report and ask to press charges. Then you immediately go to your own insurance company and file a claim with the police report and video evidence, pay your deductible, they send someone out to do the estimate or schedule one for you. They repair the vehicle or determine if it’s a total loss , then they Subro the claim for all the damages + your deductible to the party at fault .. in this case USPS. You let your own insurance company handle all the back end crap and claims process.
You should definitely file a criminal complaint. That would escalate this to a matter they'd finally take serious and stop brushing you off. That was a hit and run.
Sure, except that the USPS can claim qualified immunity under state laws for their drivers and vehicles. USPS vehicles do not need license plates and their drivers are exempt from needing a state drivers license. You have to pursue them under federal regs and then sue in federal court if that fails.
@@946towguy2 If you operate a motor vehicle as part of your duties, then you must have a valid, current state driver’s license in your possession while driving the vehicle. This requirement applies to all drivers of vehicles owned or leased by the Postal Service, owned by contractors, or owned by the driver.
@@946towguy2 Wrong. Government employees are protected under qualified immunity for harm caused by official acts done on behalf of the agency employing them. Committing a crime is not covered under qualified immunity as evidenced by the many government employees and officials who have been charged and convicted of crimes committed on duty. USPS workers also DO have to have to have valid state driver's licenses. The only thing you got right is about the license plates and that's because the vehicles are owned and operated by the federal government, and therefore not subject to state registration requirements. However, all USPS vehicles have registration numbers that are clearly visible on the rear of the vehicle to individually identify them. It is basically the equivalent of a US Government license plate, and they are in fact "registered" and in an automated database maintained by the US government and accessible by state and local law enforcement.
@@skyhawk_4526 OK so hit and run is a criminal act, so they got that right too. Call the police regarding the criminal act of a hit and run incident committed, and press charges.
I've heard it argued. that NOTHING can interfer with the delivery of mail. Federal government vehicles are (and the driver of)I subject to state or lower government laws, ordnances, et cetera UNLESS the government accepts the claim. Many lessor governments also have the power to Not accept claims unless they accet it.

What would he get out of that? Just time wasted. The driver would not spend a day in jail, if he was even taken to jail at all, he would be released the same day. If convicted, he would only get probation.
@@ItzguzmanHe probably wouldn’t get anytime in jail but he would most likely be fired from the PO as he did a criminal act in a federal vehicle. It’s clearly a hit and run.
@@jonesvaughn8946 Yeah probably just a fine but he knew he was going to get fired and that’s why he took his retirement right after this happened. Probably had at least 20 years of service and with that, he retired comfortably from the PO.
@@946towguy2 California police officer and former federal law enforcement officer here. You are incorrect. We recently arrested an on-duty USPS carrier for DUI and Hit and Run after he crashed into someone's fence and drove off. That's not the first time we've done so either. The FBI has jurisdiction over federal crimes and any crimes (state or federal) that are committed on exclusive federal property. Hit and run is a state crime. Only if the (state) crime occurred on federal property would federal law enforcement have any jurisdiction. The Assimilated Crimes Act which allows feds to arrest or issue citations for state code violations on property with exclusive federal jurisdiction like federal buildings, military installations, certain federally managed lands, etc. This is because only the feds have police powers in these areas and there is no federal crime of hit and run or (in the case I mentioned) DUI, so they arrest or cite for violation of the appropriate state law. The feds actually have zero jurisdiction in the case shown in this video because no federal crime was committed, and the crime was not committed on federal property.
@@Gfysimpletonsstop drinking the kool-aid…Republican states have some of the highest crime rates in the country…if police cared in those states why such high crime?
They're suppose to contact their postmaster unless it's an emergency. Then the postmaster is to contact the correct response units and go to the scene of the accident.
Something similar happened to me, they tell you to talk to insurance who tells you to pursue the driver in court. Only problem is the driver the city hires is an illegal immigrant who cannot be sued.
Punitive damages? Man we got hate filled unhinged American here, that thinks the TAXPAYERS should pay PUNITIVE damages for a dented bumper. GET A GRIP ON YOURSELF.
They should pass a law or policies that don’t allow people to retire instead of being fired. It they did something that was big enough to be fired while employed, then they shouldn’t have an opportunity to retire while the case is pending.
"erm sir, you need to file a 95 form, you filed the 94 form". "Sir unfortunately you didn't fill out the 95 form in a timely manner, so it will be on the bottom of the pile". "sir, sorry we are backed up now due to the elections". "Sir please hold".
USPS has a long history of screwing EVERYBODY out of the money they owe. I worked for a semi-trailer repair company and most of our clients were railroads and trailer leasing companies. USPS damaged a couple of railroad owned trailers to the tune of $7500.00. When USPS picked up the empty trailers they were inspected at the gate for damage and anything found gets written up and put in the manifest box of the trailer. USPS isn't responsible for any of that damage. When the trailers made it back to the railroad, they were again inspected at the gate and the damage found and documented on another J-2 inspection form. Any damage on that one is on USPS to pay for. We repaired the trailers and billed the post office. Exact same thing as this poor guy got, they simply ignore you for months, if you manage to talk to somebody they're always the wrong party and pass you back into never never land. Got our lawyer on it, same nonsense. With all the layers of red tape suing them would take years and it wouldn't be worth it for $7500. We were a tiny, family run business, we really needed that money. At least this guy got something back via insurance. Sucks but something is better than -$7500.00
I think the driver knew exactly what he was doing. He wanted to as they said he retired exactly after the incident. I think it was intentional. I don’t know if it was intentional towards the family, but whatever the case is crazy well good thing he retired because he would’ve been fired otherwise

Not a felony. Misdemeanor . CA: THE DEFINITION OF “HIT AND RUN” UNDER VEHICLE CODE § 20002 In order for you to be convicted of hit and run[2], the prosecution must prove the following: While driving, the defendant was involved in a vehicle accident; The accident caused damage to someone else's property; The defendant knew that (he/she) had been involved in an accident that caused property damage; The defendant willfully failed to perform one or more of the following duties: (a) To stop immediately at the scene of the accident; or (b) To provide the owner or person in control of the damaged property with (his/her) name and current residence address [and the name and address of the owner of the vehicle the defendant was driving]. PENALTIES UNDER CALIFORNIA VEHICLE CODE § 20002 As a misdemeanor, hit and run carries a possible sentence of up to six months in the county jail as well as a fine up to $1,000.00 dollars, or both. Penalties can also include 3 years of probation, restitution for the damage to property as well as 2 points on a California driving record.
I was a USPS driver for the Xmas season in downtown Seattle. It was my first and last day. I didn't hit anyone but the pace and work load was overwhelming. It's dangerous.
I’m not surprised at all. In my experience, you can’t even get the post office to forward your mail as requested. And if you have to leave a domestic abuse situation, they’ll keep delivering your mail to your abuser. Or as I used to call him, my psycho ex from hell. They are surprisingly efficient at SELLING YOUR NEW ADDRESS to companies though. No private company would get away the substandard performance a government agency does. They’d get competed out of existence.
You do realize it takes a carrier that cares to do it right? Carriers focus on their own routes and definitely don't maintain other people's routes. You had a carrier that didn't care about his job and just throws all the mail in the box with no care. I promise you all the carriers that works with him hates him because he's the kind of guy that will never bring his forward cards with nor writes them up.
@ you don’t realize an organization has to get its people to do the things it commits to doing? If a business that fails to deliver explained that its people just won’t do their jobs, people wouldn’t care why it’s failing. They switch to a better company.
I had one in Michigan crash into a snow bank,, drunk walked past other homes, and went a quarter mile to my house demanding to use the bathroom. I refused her, reported it to the sheriff, mail stopped coming for a month , no results except mail missing. The post office said it was resolved..
USPS is known for delivering mail to the wrong address, dumping mail on the side of the road and now a hot and run along with delaying reimbursement. What is this country coming to?
@946towguy2 No, but they can take a police report to help with your insurance claim. By documenting damage with pictures they can prove they took in a timely fashion can help. Document 8 ways from Sunday!
The victim doesn't have to pursue criminal charges -- that's the police and prosecutor's job. This is a clear-cut case -- with video proof! Why isn't the District Attorney's office pursuing this???
The D.A. doesn't prosecute every single criminal complaint. When complainants announce "Oh never mind, just kidding, I don't feel like taking this to court," they get bumped to the D.A.'s "Not worth my time" list.
@nancymcmonarch Yeah, that's understandable -- in most cases. But in _this_ case you have high quality video of the collision and the illegal departure (hit & run). It's an open-and-shut case. If I were a prosecutor, I would _want_ to pursue this one, even if the victim isn't particularly keen on doing so. (And of course the prosecutor can subpoena the victim and make him testify even if he doesn't want to.)
This is a perfect example of how the government works. And democrats want bigger government, if that happens you will be sorry and there will be nothing you can do about it.
Don't kid yourself, the postalworker is part of a *Powerful Union* he will be claiming disability for the accident etc. He retired with a fully indexed *taxpayer funded Pension for Life* It's like winning the lottery.

I don't understand it, they already have the item in the delivery vehicle and made the effort to drive to your address but then not try to deliver it??
@@bleukreuznot defending it but a little inside look. The mail your carrier delivers is all presorted and a concrete route. They have to drive past your house regardless if you have mail or not to follow their route. Now as far as the certified letter, I’m guilty of being annoyed of pulling to a house, knocking and waiting 4-5 mins, no response, and the customer decides to stumble to the door after I already wrote up a notice and as I’m leaving. I’ve done that to a house who often gets letters but is never available to answer the door. I found myself “assuming” they won’t answer after a while. Lot of scenarios but like I said not defending it. Mail carriers have no AC, typically work 6 days a week, unpredictable work hours and trucks with terrible gas emissions in the cabin of the truck.

None of this surprises me. In cases like this, it doesn't matter if it's local or federal government, they are always a nightmare to deal with, even in open-and-shut cases like this. A friend of mine is a semi-truck driver. He was delivering a load at night in Anaheim, California a few years ago. A police officer was in pursuit of someone, didn't have lights or sirens on, and blew through a red light as my buddy was making a legal left turn with a green light. When the cop car t-boned him, it shoved the entire semi truck cab over an entire lane. My buddy had it on dash cam, they were able to pull up the footage on the traffic cameras and off the officer body and squad car cameras. The cop was 100% at fault AND he was actually cited for causing the accident. It took my friend two years to get the whole matter settled.

@@V-ki2wl The USPS is the second largest federal employer, with over 500,000 employees.
Quasi-federal agency.
Well it has already been pointed they aren’t federally funded with tax payer loot since the 1970s, but what you said is still very wise. If you don’t file charges on a federal employee they can keep using their privileges in that position to cover up their crimes rather than showing they do not have the integrity to continue in their position. It is in the best interest of the NATION not just for you, to file charges on them especially when they committed felonies on video at that. To not file on them is to let your country down of which you share as citizen. What hurts one, hurts us all. Federal employees have to be held to a higher standard, you commit crime against the public, not only should they immediately be investigated, but also indicted and handed a federal prison sentence. Don’t get into a government position and think you can commit a single crime and not have to pay dearly for it as that is close to treasonous and traitorous to use OUR power against the people.
The people should demand no tolerance for government employees that commit crimes at any level. Lose your job, disqualify them from ever holding another government position and go to prison.
We are way too lax on letting corruption run rampant in our government. It’s the people’s government, it’s not owned by those who are serving as servants to the people. But we are not tough on government corruption at all and yet the nation is constantly bellyaching about all the political corruption but the people do nothing about it.
You should ALWAYS pursue criminal charges. THAT'S HOW CHANGES OCCUR. These events will keep happening to other innocent people until somebody finally files charges!
It's so frustrating when victims choose not to pursue legal actions, because it's saying "You're off the hook. You can go do it to someone else."
@@V-ki2wlthey are federal employees, they’re not federally funded.

@@SonnyShizzleI do think the USPS has insurance. Be should have reported to police. Hit and run is their department.

Same tactic police use when filing complaints, FOIA, etc.
This is exactly why
This is a standard tactic for a lot of government agencies in the US. They try to wait you out to keep from paying
I worked for an answering service for a time and I can confirm they totally, and knowingly do this; avoiding telling people they need to file forms and go through proper channels, make themselves constantly unavailable, ect. The worst part is that it works.
Having worked for the post office years ago, this doesn't surprise me at all. Working for them was total chaos, I've never experienced so much rampant unprofessionalism in my life, all the way from their mail couriers to their management staff. A very toxic company that doesn't want to accept responsibility for anything. They will hire anyone with a pulse as well -- I worked with the dumbest people I've ever seen.

@@C.O.Rey_Male-mon
Yes. The carrier in our subdivision was finally caught slitting mail and allowed to retire without prosecution. She was caught with a gift card that my next door neighbor mailed as a set up and photographed before sealing the envelope. The serial numbers matched what she had on her. The Postal Inspectors said they needed more evidence than that.
My old carrier took out my mailbox. Never said a word about it. Luckily a neighbor saw it and told us what happened. When I confronted her she claimed not to know anything about it. She finally confessed when I told her there was a witness. Postal Service never paid for the new post or mailbox and the carrier was assigned to a different route. No accountability from the government.
Is there ever???
Post office isn't apart of the government contrary to popular belief
Surprised they didn’t put her in prison for destroying the mailbox she should of got 10 years minimum at least .

Federal charges I bet.
The US Postal service NEVER takes responsibility for their actions. NEVER!! Hands down!
I trained as a USPS driver in Chattanooga, TN back in early 2023 but resigned within a few days. I did not like the job. But during training, the instructor taught that when you dismount from the vehicle, you first set the parking brake, you turn the front wheels towards the curb, you shut off the engine, then you dismount. This driver did none of this. He left the vehicle running, the parking brake was off. He violated every rule of dismounting from the vehicle. We were taught that it would result in immediate termination if found out by the USPS. That is why the employee quit before he could be fired. He took shortcuts and ended his career as a result. This was absolute stupidity at its finest.
That was my training as well. I did my first 360 and at the end of the 5 days off I turned bldg keys in along with my resignation. The place was being run by a short-man-syndrome PM who gave the supervisor position to the most incompetent front clerk he had. She was ok as a front clerk sup, but had no common sense and no respect for anyone. All because of an affair and because he could manipulate her in many ways since she didn’t know the job and he was a “trust me” guy so she trusted him. I wasn’t about to keep running a hub (serving about 20 offices in multiple cities and counties) everyday for them morons one more day. I they didn’t even tell me they had given the position which is the other reason I resigned, because I knew they were not above “forgetting” to tell me I got it, and when I did not go in (because I didn’t t know I had to; I wasn’t on the next schedule) just say I abandoned the job. So I made it easy for them and for me. I rather make $19 somewhere I don’t have to stress about ridiculousness from grown folk like they’re toddlers.
@@tainadelcaribe Thanks for your reply. I saw the writing on the wall early and resigned. $20.00 per hour coupled with all the scrutiny and fear of losing my job in an instance was not worth it.

@@stevens6398 DeJoy made it crappy on purpose because he owns stock in FedEx and UPS
As someone who believes in limited government and works for the dumb government, I can attest to the validity of this statement.
This is why you file the police report and ask to press charges. Then you immediately go to your own insurance company and file a claim with the police report and video evidence, pay your deductible, they send someone out to do the estimate or schedule one for you. They repair the vehicle or determine if it’s a total loss , then they Subro the claim for all the damages + your deductible to the party at fault .. in this case USPS. You let your own insurance company handle all the back end crap and claims process.
You should definitely file a criminal complaint. That would escalate this to a matter they'd finally take serious and stop brushing you off. That was a hit and run.
Sure, except that the USPS can claim qualified immunity under state laws for their drivers and vehicles. USPS vehicles do not need license plates and their drivers are exempt from needing a state drivers license. You have to pursue them under federal regs and then sue in federal court if that fails.
@@946towguy2 If you operate a motor vehicle as part of your duties, then you must have a valid, current state driver’s license in your possession while driving the vehicle. This requirement applies to all drivers of vehicles owned or leased by the Postal Service, owned by contractors, or owned by the driver.
@@946towguy2 Wrong. Government employees are protected under qualified immunity for harm caused by official acts done on behalf of the agency employing them. Committing a crime is not covered under qualified immunity as evidenced by the many government employees and officials who have been charged and convicted of crimes committed on duty. USPS workers also DO have to have to have valid state driver's licenses.
The only thing you got right is about the license plates and that's because the vehicles are owned and operated by the federal government, and therefore not subject to state registration requirements. However, all USPS vehicles have registration numbers that are clearly visible on the rear of the vehicle to individually identify them. It is basically the equivalent of a US Government license plate, and they are in fact "registered" and in an automated database maintained by the US government and accessible by state and local law enforcement.

@@946towguy2 police have no jurisdiction over a hit and run? are you sh!tting me?
@@946towguy2 California police officer and former federal law enforcement officer here. You are incorrect. We recently arrested an on-duty USPS carrier for DUI and Hit and Run after he crashed into someone's fence and drove off. That's not the first time we've done so either. The FBI has jurisdiction over federal crimes and any crimes (state or federal) that are committed on exclusive federal property. Hit and run is a state crime. Only if the (state) crime occurred on federal property would federal law enforcement have any jurisdiction. The Assimilated Crimes Act which allows feds to arrest or issue citations for state code violations on property with exclusive federal jurisdiction like federal buildings, military installations, certain federally managed lands, etc. This is because only the feds have police powers in these areas and there is no federal crime of hit and run or (in the case I mentioned) DUI, so they arrest or cite for violation of the appropriate state law. The feds actually have zero jurisdiction in the case shown in this video because no federal crime was committed, and the crime was not committed on federal property.

USPS has a long history of screwing EVERYBODY out of the money they owe. I worked for a semi-trailer repair company and most of our clients were railroads and trailer leasing companies. USPS damaged a couple of railroad owned trailers to the tune of $7500.00. When USPS picked up the empty trailers they were inspected at the gate for damage and anything found gets written up and put in the manifest box of the trailer. USPS isn't responsible for any of that damage. When the trailers made it back to the railroad, they were again inspected at the gate and the damage found and documented on another J-2 inspection form. Any damage on that one is on USPS to pay for. We repaired the trailers and billed the post office. Exact same thing as this poor guy got, they simply ignore you for months, if you manage to talk to somebody they're always the wrong party and pass you back into never never land. Got our lawyer on it, same nonsense. With all the layers of red tape suing them would take years and it wouldn't be worth it for $7500. We were a tiny, family run business, we really needed that money. At least this guy got something back via insurance. Sucks but something is better than -$7500.00
I found the same thing with USPS. I stopped doing business with them.
Ring, doorbell, cameras, single-handedly saving America
I think the driver knew exactly what he was doing. He wanted to as they said he retired exactly after the incident. I think it was intentional. I don’t know if it was intentional towards the family, but whatever the case is crazy well good thing he retired because he would’ve been fired otherwise

Not a felony. Misdemeanor . CA:
THE DEFINITION OF “HIT AND RUN” UNDER VEHICLE CODE § 20002
In order for you to be convicted of hit and run[2], the prosecution must prove the following:
While driving, the defendant was involved in a vehicle accident;
The accident caused damage to someone else's property;
The defendant knew that (he/she) had been involved in an accident that caused property damage;
The defendant willfully failed to perform one or more of the following duties: (a) To stop immediately at the scene of the accident; or (b) To provide the owner or person in control of the damaged property with (his/her) name and current residence address [and the name and address of the owner of the vehicle the defendant was driving].
PENALTIES UNDER CALIFORNIA VEHICLE CODE § 20002
As a misdemeanor, hit and run carries a possible sentence of up to six months in the county jail as well as a fine up to $1,000.00 dollars, or both. Penalties can also include 3 years of probation, restitution for the damage to property as well as 2 points on a California driving record.

New car parked onthe street instead of the driveway or garage? Why?
I’m not surprised at all.
In my experience, you can’t even get the post office to forward your mail as requested.
And if you have to leave a domestic abuse situation, they’ll keep delivering your mail to your abuser.

They are surprisingly efficient at SELLING YOUR NEW ADDRESS to companies though.
No private company would get away the substandard performance a government agency does. They’d get competed out of existence.
You do realize it takes a carrier that cares to do it right? Carriers focus on their own routes and definitely don't maintain other people's routes. You had a carrier that didn't care about his job and just throws all the mail in the box with no care. I promise you all the carriers that works with him hates him because he's the kind of guy that will never bring his forward cards with nor writes them up.

@@dreamer6508 hey dufus it is on video you can not argue with a video
The victim doesn't have to pursue criminal charges -- that's the police and prosecutor's job. This is a clear-cut case -- with video proof! Why isn't the District Attorney's office pursuing this???
The D.A. doesn't prosecute every single criminal complaint. When complainants announce "Oh never mind, just kidding, I don't feel like taking this to court," they get bumped to the D.A.'s "Not worth my time" list.
@nancymcmonarch Yeah, that's understandable -- in most cases. But in _this_ case you have high quality video of the collision and the illegal departure (hit & run). It's an open-and-shut case. If I were a prosecutor, I would _want_ to pursue this one, even if the victim isn't particularly keen on doing so.
(And of course the prosecutor can subpoena the victim and make him testify even if he doesn't want to.)
This is a perfect example of how the government works.
And democrats want bigger government, if that happens you will be sorry and there will be nothing you can do about it.

USPS's revenues haven't covered its expenses and debt for more than 15 years. And its expenses are growing faster than its revenues. Replacing the Volkswagen is out of reach for the USPS. We need to do a "GoFundMe" for USPS.
@@kenmore01 The USPS has been operating in the red for decades. It is insolvent just like all other governmental agencies and programs. Only a matter of time.
@@doright8355 The only reason the post office functions at a loss is because they are forced by Congress to fund pensions 75 years in advance. They can no longer do this and default on the payment. No other federal agency is expected to fund employee pensions for future employees that are most likely not even born.
Bidenomics
The Post Office has gone to the trash can for a long time now.. it's sad.y he didnt call the cops??
I was sitting in a chair 5’ from front door, mail lady puts my mail in slot in door and, once again, there’s a notice that she had certified mail for me but I wasn’t available to sign! She didn’t knock on door and the form was pre-filled. I ran out and stopped her. She apologized, went to truck and got my letter! She LIED bc she didn’t want to deliver my letter. I have been going to the PO and dealing with surly workers trying to get CERTIFIED mail!!!
Yeah I hate those type of workers… my nearest post office is 20 minutes …
USPS does that to me all the time. 😡
I’ve met absolutely lovely USPS workers, so I know that not all of them are this terrible, but boy there are a lot of them!
I know your pain. A lot of third party courier in Australia does something like this too. You would take the day off to wait for important delivery and never get any knock or door bell at all... I don't understand it, they already have the item in the delivery vehicle and made the effort to drive to your address but then not try to deliver it??
@@bleukreuznot defending it but a little inside look.
The mail your carrier delivers is all presorted and a concrete route. They have to drive past your house regardless if you have mail or not to follow their route.
Now as far as the certified letter, I’m guilty of being annoyed of pulling to a house, knocking and waiting 4-5 mins, no response, and the customer decides to stumble to the door after I already wrote up a notice and as I’m leaving. I’ve done that to a house who often gets letters but is never available to answer the door. I found myself “assuming” they won’t answer after a while.
Lot of scenarios but like I said not defending it. Mail carriers have no AC, typically work 6 days a week, unpredictable work hours and trucks with terrible gas emissions in the cabin of the truck.
Did people not hear that transmission grinding with wheels rolling? Some serious issues there too.
That's what I thought 😂
Standard form 95??? That's rubbish!
Government red tape at its finest!
@@hedwards4599 imagine working there and getting hurt. Or you need a day off it’s all forms. To do this to a civilian outside the agency is ridiculous.
$3000 in lost wages from not being able to drive to work? Either he has an extremely high paying job, or he took off more days than required
Why was the car parked on the main street and not parked on the driveway?
There should have been NO MERCY toward the USPS and the driver. Charges should have been filed. Hit and run is a serious crime.
This is why I never park on the road
Too many idiots
Some of us don’t have choice.
It must be nice to have the privilege of not having to park on the road.
USPS: We have investigated ourselves and find no wrongdoing.
Typical government agency.
USPS driver should be charged for hit and run.
Why do government workers only get a slap on the hand... any normal citizen would have been criminally charged for hit and run for what he did.
Please! They'll steal your mail in a heartbeat, and even EMPLOYEES say exactly what everyone else already said: lazy, thieves, and no honor, as shown. They'll steal it and cut open the replacement BOOK package hope they'll READ IT, anyways.
Despite popular belief....The USPS is NOT a govt entity.However this is unacceptable and a hit and run. Destruction of someone's property and then to run like a coward is bs.
any normal citizen, who isn't rich, or didn't have connections.
@@MaryMary-iw7wh The United States Postal Service (USPS), also known as the Post Office, U.S. Mail, or simply the Postal Service, is an independent agency of the executive branch of the United States federal government
@@MaryMary-iw7wh The Postal Reorganization Act of 1970 established the USPS as an independent government agency.
My vehicle was hit by a postal worker. The hoops you have to go through if you get in an accident with a postal worker is INSANE. You have to MAIL in their stupid form and all accident reports/receipts, etc. and pay out of pocket or go through your own insurance and be out money. They have no insurance company you can deal with, all you can do is mail them your information and wait. Its an absolute joke and the postal service should be ashamed and they shouldn't be allowed to operate this way.
He pressed the gas instead of the brake lol
Nothing funny about that and ‘lol’ is SO lame and outdated.
@@JoanBrown-j3e Plenty funny. Must be misreble to be around U, Miss Uptight.
@@JoanBrown-j3egotta be blue
@@JoanBrown-j3e lol
Funny as hell, cope @@JoanBrown-j3e
Our government at work...sounds about right, fuck our shit up and not take responsibility.
Post Office struggling to make money, Post driver struggling to control car.
The Post Office loses money intentionally by underpricing junk mail for political reasons.
😂
@@KarmenD-ce5reWrong, the money it generates in profits is supposed to fund its operations, but it instead incurs billions of dollars in operating losses annually 😅
@@KarmenD-ce5re No you didn’t lol. “They aren’t suppose to make money” they Infact do 56 billion dollars of revenue generation actually this last quarter, it’s just not enough to sustain their operations sustainably. They ideally want to break even but now the tax payers still foot the bill smh.
@phatnum17 think they meant not supposed to make a profit after expenses. I'm an ex carrier and that's what we were told. USPS is meant to be a service to the american people per the constitution, not a business. However, it's not supposed to run in the red and have poor service like it is now 😬 I blame a certain administration for severing ties between the government and the USPS. The latter effective running as well as... well, a run away teenager or freight train.
I almost had this happen when I was a carrier at the post office. Didn't go in park. I got out and it started rolling away. Jumped in and got it stopped inches from the car in front of me.
Some of these old mail trucks have an issue where the lever looks and feels like it's in park, but it actually is not. I drove a bunch of them with this issue
Lol😂 this dude worked another six months before he retired😅
Wrong!
Why not take them to court? Sue for complete amount
This could only happen in California where Committing a Crime only has Consequences for Victims and not the Criminals.
As a retired postal worker, happens everywhere
Absolutely disgusting behavior from our government
Don't worry. The check is in the mail.
oh great means another "visit" from the USPS. Keep your ring camera running...
The dollar signs this man must have had in his eyes when he saw it was a USPS truck
I doubt he made pretty much anything out of this and likely broke a little bit above even. You aren't getting rich off someone hitting & running unless they actually hurt someone.
USPS is incompetent.
The grinding sound is someone's transmission going bye-bye.....
yup!
Man should have contacted a lawyer. The lawyer would have know what to do to get money quicker and get more money. Probably would have been settled out of court too.
He should have filed criminal charges in this case. It was a clear hit-and-run.
Another reason insurance is a scam. No way that damaged the frame LOL
Haven’t you ever been to a post office? There’s like two people working at any time. One in the front and one in the back
well that might depend on if your talking about a heehaw post office that services 34 people. Mine in the morning has 40 or 50 people working in the back. In the afternoon there's not a lot of people in the back cause the all out delivering the mail.
Well, he should have called the cops first. Hit and run is a crime then called his insurance company and let them go after them for damages. He went about it the wrong way.
None of this surprises me. In cases like this, it doesn't matter if it's local or federal government, they are always a nightmare to deal with, even in open-and-shut cases like this. A friend of mine is a semi-truck driver. He was delivering a load at night in Anaheim, California a few years ago. A police officer was in pursuit of someone, didn't have lights or sirens on, and blew through a red light as my buddy was making a legal left turn with a green light. When the cop car t-boned him, it shoved the entire semi truck cab over an entire lane. My buddy had it on dash cam, they were able to pull up the footage on the traffic cameras and off the officer body and squad car cameras. The cop was 100% at fault AND he was actually cited for causing the accident. It took my friend two years to get the whole matter settled.
