    Yes as its ultimately the Insurer who is being asked to pay
  • I hit someone at a roundabout, I was stationary and had pulled away and travelled about 2 foot when she stopped in front of me so I couldn't have been going more than 5 miles an hour but apparently the woman I hit was unable to work due to her awful whiplash injuries (she was fine when she got out the car shouting at me and she looked fine the next day when I saw her at the same roundabout) and my insurance company paid out even though I told them I had seen her the next day!!!:mad:

    I see there's somebody in the news today who 'arranged' accidents for a fee and was only caught after workers in a building noticed that most of the accidents that took place outside their office building strangely had the same person driving.

    At least 93 crashes caused by him!

    Pity all the 93 innocent people who were forced into an accident and then suffered false claims payouts on their insurance. 24 people who used his services to make claims waiting sentencing.

    What's happening with your friend, OP?
