A Cobb County college student hopes someone will recognize the driver who he says totaled his car. A good Samaritan recorded video of her before she drove off.
The crash happened at the KSU campus in Marietta.
"It still is disappointing because I'm out of a vehicle and I think she would have the common decency to treat me as a human being," crash victim Nathan Velliquette told Channel 2’s Ross Cavitt.
A witness started recording the post-accident exchange between Velliquette and the Lexus-driving woman who he says hit him when she started acting a bit strange.
"You have all the information right here, I really need to go. We really have to go," the woman told Velliquette.
"And I told her she needs to stay when it started getting a little weird. She handed me a piece of notebook paper not showing me actual hard copies of everything," Velliquette said. "It was an Atlanta based insurance company, insurance ID, driver’s license ID, name and phone number but all of those were fake."
Before Marietta police could arrive, video shows the driver jumped into a Lexus and peeled off with her license peeled up so it wasn't visible -- leaving the computer science major without his wheels.
Velliquette posted the video on social media, hoping to jog the Lexus driver's conscious.
"Her face is out there. It’s obvious who she is and I just hope she doesn't do this to somebody else," Velliquette said.
Marietta police confirm they are investigating the incident. They also confirmed the information on that piece of paper was false.
The driver could be charged with leaving the scene of an accident.
