    Guys I think you are Missing My point.
    There is NO argument that the car driver hit TS and "caused" the accident
    As in TS could have been doing a handstand on the bars and it would still have happened.
    BUT Insurance companies look for any excuse to get out of paying out.
    If TS's actions could have contributed to the accident they will do their best not to payout.
    Also he could be prosecuted as a result of admitting to "careless" use of a motor vehicle.
    As an example I had an accident years ago. -The other party was the "innocent" victim but got prosecuted on 3 counts by the police.
    -carrying 6 passengers all unlicenced on a learner licence, No WOF and NO rego.
    Their insurance company also refused to pay out.
    For the record the accident was caused by diesel oil dropped on the road causing me to slide across the center line into the oncoming traffic
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    Of course their insurance didnt pay out - they weren't at fault. Isnt it supposed to be your insurance that pays out? Or did your insurance not cover their damage? If they had comprehensive, then they would get a payout, and the insurance would try get it out of you/your insurance. Are you saying that they didnt get paid out under these circumstances? If the insurance company did not got money in and then refused to pay it out then that is just criminal. If the insurance company refused to process the claim, then less so.
