Insurance claim advice - two vehicles colliding at low speed
Comments
-
Well that's obvious isn't it? If you change lanes and drive in to the path of a vehicle already in that lane and he hits you then you've caused the accident not them.
ops tried to word it carefully but ignoring the contradiction about speed, doesnt this just translate to op reversed into the path of a passing vehice?!
discussing contributory negligence is a bit pointless anyway since op can't prove anything at all.0 -

My door was hit by the other drivers corner of his bumper. He did not hit me with the front of the vehicle. There was very little damage other than some scratches to his bumper. I ended up with £350 worth of damage which I have had repaired. I have photos of the damage to his vehicle but not my own.
So he was speeding in reverse? :undecided“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

sounds like the other guy swerved or just impatient0 -
Then of course if OP was reversing out of a space (obviously blindly) then this could go very badly with the insurance.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

Good idea.....when in car parks, always get to the middle of the "Road" whenever possible, this gives you more chance if a car pulls out suddenly as this can of course be either side.0

Well in (9) where A is hit by B who is hit by C i'm a little confused as to why between A and B, B is held 50% liable.
Although these are far from being anything of sunstance! There are many other possibilities which may affect or determine liability!0 -

Because B was driving too close to A
Of course their are many variables but its a handy wee guide I thought anyway0
