She could just be chancing her luck. I had that once too. I let my insurance company know about the letter I received. I sent off a letter to both my insurance company and hers and never heard any more about it.0

Good luck with it. I'm sure if you're not at fault you won't have a problem.
Explain what happened to your insurance company and let them deal with it.

It's standard that one should never admit liability, even if you think it is solely one person's fault - she's probably just taking it a bit literally. As long as you give insurance co. as much info as possible, it's down to them to sort it out. Remember to put in a claim for any excess you may have to pay out.0

Cases like this are exactly why I always carry a little camera in the glovebox.
I once had a car go into the side of me, and then tried to make out that, from the length of his skid marks, he couldn't have been going very fast. I then pointed out that the final braking effort was provided by nearly 2 tonnes of Mk.5 Ford Cortina!The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life.
