The Honda Rider and the MX5 owner.....getting dodgy![]()
I had this same problem.
I was stopped at a pedestrian crossing, a lady not paying attention hit the back of me, right as a young couple with a pram walked in front of my car.
She admitted fault immediately. I took witness info from everyone I could see anyway.
This happened before xmas, and after being impossible to get hold of, she would not admit liability to her insurance company. Over the whole of xmas we were down a car.
Finally in february after still refusing to admit liability, apparently saying we stopped too quickly....WTF?! she received a letter under her door, which was sighted with friends and they went with us when we dropped it off. (cover all bases)
The letter said the list of events, the witnesses, and how much a rental vehicle would cost per day whist in the shop, and that we would be taking it to an official Subaru dealer (read expensive). We added $20 an hour for 5 hours research into our rights, and time wasted on the phone, $200 as we had to take the gas guzzler on holiday instead, and $500 in compensation. All of which we did'nt expect to win but it adds to it all.
From here we suggested she get in contact with her insurance within a week or we would be taking her to the diputes tribunal.
We left names and numbers etc, and further mentioned she would be responsible for each of our wages if it went to court, and we would be claiming that she pay for the costs of the proceedings.
Stupid blonde twatt "woke up" and rang us that same night......tried to get us to feel sorry for her. I forgot to add she was in a nice new BMW and she has a beautiful house in Devonport........apparently she was deserving of some sympathy after purposely fucking us around for tow months. (what about all the freakin grief she caused us!? Some people are so self absorbed it's un-believeable!) It would have been nice to have the right to sue here in N.Z, i'd have taken her to the cleaners......
I think the letter coupled with the fact that we knew where she lived definitely solved our issue.

Teach its owner to fix it and it'll break in some way you've never seen before.
That probably just means mortgaged to the bollocks and exorbitant monthly lease payments so she looks the part, but less actual disposable income than you.
The bit I don't understand in all of this is the insurance hassles. When our car got bent they fixed it straight away, they told us we might have to pay the $200 excess to get the car back and then get it refunded once they sorted out the silly girl that hit it, but there was no waiting until they sorted out who was at fault before it got fixed.

On my gubbmint salary?! I do'nt think so.
She was wanking on about her marriage break up. Which left her with all the trimmings, and she was in the process of selling the house. She was also insured, so the bitch was being just that, a bitch by refusing to admit liability and royally fucking us around. Her insurance minus her premium paid for the damage.
If you think about it that young couple was lucky we were stopped at the pedestrian crossing or she'd probably have run over a couple and a pram.

Doesn't take much for you to come out of your corner with your immature rubbish does it? Go back to your corner before the winds changes.
Keep your name calling to those who care about your opinion. As I mentioned before....you just don't rate, you're like an annoying flea that needs a hard slap.
You silly little girl.
