There is a citizen-citation process, which allows you, an ordinary citizen,
to issue a citation to a car driver whom you witnessed breaking the law.
It's rather time-consuming, but once you get the ball rolling, the Portland
Police are obligated by law to go to the person's door, in person, and issue
them a citation with a court date. The person then has the choice to either
plead "Guilty" and pay the fine, or plea "Not guilty" and show up in traffic
court and face the judge. If you're willing to put in the time and effort,
you can use this legal process to force the person who hit you defend
themself and their behavior in a court of law.
