Upsetting experience

[Cookielady]

We are traveling in our 40 foot motorhome and pulling a Saturn Vue. We stopped for an overnighter near Kansas City, MO the other night. The site they gave us was impossible to level our coach so they moved us to a back in. No big deal. We parked our car in front of our coach, a good 4 feet from the gravel road.
Sometime during the wee hours, we heard a loud noise and by the time we got to the front of the coach to look out the window, we saw a neighbor leaving in their fifth wheel. We thought nothing more of it until we got up and went to our car. It appears that the older couple in the fifth wheel hit our car while making the turn to the campground exit. We now have a huge scrap from the back door to the back light. Several smaller scratches and even the wheel has scrapes and a dent.
We spoke to this couple the night before and they seemed so sweet. Why would anyone hit someone like that and not stop?

Probably never felt anything. I was driving a full size SUV once and a small car and I were both backing at the same time and we collided. I never felt a thing, but rather suddenly saw the small car behind me. Would not have known if I hadn't have seen it.

I would expect that the tail end of the 5er caught the car and in the dark they did not even notice. With a large trailer you may not feel anything.

That's very unfortunate. Sorry for your mishap. They probably didn't realize they hit anything. Didn't feel or hear it otherwise I bet they would have stopped.
