Today I knocked a guy off his scooter. My first ever at fault accident. Fortunately it was at about 10 km/h so he was not hurt, however I still feel really bad about it!!!Especially as I am a motorcyclist myself. I was in the Pajero and it has a really bad blind spot and it was pissing down with rain, and I just didn't see him until the last second....completely my fault. His scoot is a bituva mess. I think AMI will have to buy him a new one
I feel really stink about this
Doesn't play well with others

"Wow, Great advise there DB."

The A-Pillar on a Pajero like my one is ridiculously wide at about 12 cm's wide. This is not an excuse. The accident was my fault completely. It is not the fault of my vehicle - i just simply was careless today and I had an accident. What else can I say

Aww poor scooter rider....be thankful it wasn't anything bigger in your blindspot or it might of been two vehicles for AMI

Just because your premiums were paid ... on time ... and up to date. Things insurance related do not always end there ...

All the posts so far (except one) are said in jest, no body got hurt, you have stuck your hand up, good onya for doing so.

Unlike most other people on here, most likely you, when I screw up I will actually stick up my hand and say that I have screwed up...like today. My first thoughts were with the scooter rider, to make sure he was OK, my second thought was with his bike. Turns out he is uninsured however I am fully insured, so seen as it WAS my fault he will be covered by my insurance

If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

One of the good un's.. obviously not for having the accident but putting your hand up, takes balls to do that in meatland never mind on here.. Hope the scooter dude is Ok.

I am a motorcyclist of 30+ years of experience. A slightly lesser amount with insurance companys ... whom tend to try and recoup funds from guilty parties ... especially during this "recession" and after court cases ... from the guilty parties ...
Police WERE notified of the accident ... right ??? By law they ARE required to be notified of an injury accident within 24 hours. Non injury accident within 7 days (from not so good memory)

Stink, so this one was your fault but man, those scooter riders (getting them all with the same brush for good measure) take some stupid risks, I see them zipping around central auckland all the time. Nutters.
