This happened at lunch time

What can I do / should I do?

Their school is next door to my office and I already informed their principle.

Police?

I cant even imagine if a kid did that to me

Once some kid on a bike threw a water bomb at my car when I was driving and I pulled over straight away to block him off threw his bike at some fence and had some old lady scream at me to stop. He was so sorry and luckily it was just a water balloon that just made my car a bit wet

If it was a stone I would have smacked that kid in the mouth

Show the police this and get the school to identify who it was and get this paid for

No problem on that. They know who it is

I'd like some kind of compensation as they are so blatantly caught in the act

Not fully examined the car as it hasn't been washed and I can't be sure where the stone hit.

Just check for ANY chips on the driver side of your car and take pics.

You should be able to get compensation for that pretty easy I would think. The kid cant hide from school and he has been caught. imagine you didnt have the dash cam!

It's a school for troubled kids or whatever. The police are round every other day. One was dragged kicking and screaming into a police car just yesterday after being expelled. Wouldn't go in and had to have backup and a police van take her away. This one who threw the stone at my car and was throwing stones at parked cars earlier in the video had been excluded from school that day.

So essentially the school can't handle them and turfs them out on the street for the public to deal with. Great system.

I've found a scratch on my otherwise pristine car. What to do? Ask the parents to pay? FFS!

They deserve a good beating and their parents too.

Still can't watch the video!!

Win 7, win 8, 2 IPADS and an android phone, still no joy.

Got the sound but only a still picture on one of the IPADS, but that's all.

Cant view it either just says loading... But from what I can make out(and I could be wrong of course) it's kind of a sorry state of affairs but quite commonplace, kids with nothing to do throwing stones or whatever as its what they see as normal or to pass the time, you complain to the parents they'll do sod all.

About a mile or so from where I live there's an estate of sorts where the Police are fairly well tied up shall we say with dealing with day to day activities of a few families who do things that bring misery to countless others, call it anti social or whatever but it's something seen up/down the country. We've seen this sort of thing on the telly on various programmes in one way or another kids really don't know any different IMO. Sad really.

It's a merrgoround where if damage occurs I suspect to we'd end up (wrongly)footing the bill to simply return our possessions or whatever to their pre damage/violated condition.

Next time you go round that roundabout and they are sat on the roundabout, run over the cobbled stones and their legs!

You would have a great case to get away with is as why the feck should anyone be sat on a roundabout with their legs stuck out, and of course you did not see them!
