    I'm 18, don't know what to do, my first accident. Can someone advise me please, was this my fault or hers?
    Why not speak to your insurer then, that's what you pay them for.

    How many more mishaps can you 'relay'?

    Had an accident, flashed by a camera, servicing problems, CIFAS warnning ...... Quite a lot going on there, for an 18yo.

    If you are going to 'troll', at least have the decency to put some effort in and create a few usernames and some more imaginative stories.

    He's already had at least one thread in the finance section where he posted as if he was the OP but accidentally used one of his other usernames.

    Time waster.

    Don't take him on.

    (Additionally, nobody could possibly call fault on the description given. So I'd err to the 18 year old idiot being at fault)

    She was still on the roundabout, she was still in the left hand lane. You knew she was there but still cut across to take your exit regardless. Maybe you ought to get a few more lessons, especially in situational awareness.

    But not from Romain Grosjean who has similar issues :D

    You need to calm down - maybe take a few weeks away from driving or stop giving your mates lifts
