I find it very interesting to challenge the ethics of any situation.
I consider myself ethical. If I hit a house and caused damage, regardless of price, I would assume the homeowner would take care of it as he "assumed responsibility" when he bought it. If he asked me to pay for it I would refer him to my insurance co, for him and/or his insurance co to hash out, as I head for the next hole.
