What Happens When A Car Knocks Over Your Street Light?

No seriously.
While I was in a big meeting today, there was a wreck outside.
A woman was speeding down our street and side-swiped our port-a-let delivery man, shortly before running into our street light. Her car stopped up the road by the church.
I have no idea how we didn’t hear anything.
We only heard about it well after the fact, but it was a pretty serious wreck. The woman was taken to the hospital. The port-a-let delivery man was shaken up, but he still managed to deliver our port-a-lets.
I hope the woman fares better than the street light. It got clocked.
So, anyway, what do I do now? Who do I call? Has this happened to you before?

Dept. of streets and sanitation?
I called Board Chair Marshall who knows all of this stuff including the people to call, and the conclusion we reached was this: calling the city in the PM on a Friday is probably not going to get you results.
Rhetorical question: Does calling the city on a Monday AM get you any results?
I think we’re looking at a Friday pickup. In the meantime, the street light has been picked up off the sidewalk and laid across the front lawn. Lookin’ good.
