Just called the agent apparently no full police reports from private property, so f* me. He was shaking in his boots and stuttering about when we mentioned an attorney. Big lesson here is for everyone to call a cop in the case of an altercation and if their is not a citation make sure the officer makes a full report or something in order to protect you.

Police report or not, because he saw the scene - he becomes a well qualified witness. He may not have to make a report, but he darn well would have to make a statement in a deposition.
To your other comment - in NC - it is 'State Maintained' roads etc that make the difference. The school board, although a government entity does not always make it a 'State Maintained' road. But, I am an IT Guy, not a lawyer. So that's my opinion. Keep your head, stay honest. If it does work out for you today, that attitude will work for the long haul.

My prediction is that you will be made whole Jake. However, if it gets litigated you may become familiar with the term "contributory negligence". The damage your car sustained looks like it was the result of more than a "parking lot speed" collision. You had to have witnesses. Can they attest to the fact that you were not ripping down that parking row?

There are zero unbiased individuals that can testify anything aside from the police officer or school cameras which the adjuster has contacted the school about but has not heard back from.
