Help! I was driving with two other freinds in my car. While stopping In the turn lane I hit the car's bumper very lightly. Because I was distracted (I admit this accident was my fault) However, my friends who were in the lane next to me saw the car and told me there was no damage. The girl stepped out of her car and I asked her if there was any damage, she looked at her bumper, and shook her head no waived her hand as if blowing it off and drove away. I assumed she was ok with it and there was no damage so it was ok. Well she and her friend in the car suddenly got behind us and started yelling profanities at us. I started to drive away trying to avoid them because I was afraid they were going to intentionally hit my car.When someone screams profanities at me I assume they are mad and want to start something.... I pulled into a restaurant and they followed. The girl got out of her car and insisted I commited a hit and run and she was going to sue me in court because I didn't pull over. I told her I did not hear her and I misunderstood her (through all that cussing). She did not say anything else to me but yell more profanities at me got back in the car and drove away...this is what I want to know... there was no damage to either of our cars. I have 5 witnesses that will say so she has one...She did not write down my name, get my insurance or anything though she may have gotten my plate number...I don't know what to think of this! Can she even claim anything on me? I did drive away, but there was no damage! Could she sue me for anything? I;m worried that she may fake the damages just to get money. Can anyone help!?

This is case of road rage. If there was no damage done to her vehicle, don't worry about it.
