Who has right of way when....
V8MoneyPit:
Sounds a bit that way, doesn't it?
I think you're right. Just sit it out and see what the insurance companies come back with.

I had a similar thing to this with a work van, we clipped mirrors on a narrow lane broke my mirror and broke the other cars mirror but no other damage, a few days later the other car owners insurance company tried claiming for a front wing both doors rear wing and bumper :shock: as i pointed out them if that much damage had been done to her car at knee level mind you not mirror level then surely my boss would have submitted a claim [-X for me wiping out the side of the van, my insurance company asked the police to investigate for fraud :^o and we heard no more
can you claim against the van for being parked illegally? :D
personally if the road was clear and the manouvere executed with reasonable care what more could you have done? the other person wasnt driving with "due care and attention "
muddyjames:
I woukld keep your old mirror as proof of what damage was done to your car to show that there was no way your car could have done the damage the 3rd party said happened

iirc if she was more that 3/4 of the way passed ot obstcal than she has right of way.
Also as the other party have informed the insurance of a accident. Then report it to the police as a acident has occered and if the other party dont inform the police then they could be done with failing to inform plice of a road traffic collision as per highways act. Justa thought as with most insurance polices if the police have no record of a accident they one could not of happened.

I thought that you are only obliged to report the accident to the Police if there was an injury. Not 100% certain though. :-k :-k
