Best way to proceed?

A claim seems pointless if it will cost the same as your excess.

So cancel the claim

Nothing to stop you trying to get the cost of repairs back off the bus company though!
(Assuming that repairs are less than its value!)

Arrrr you have reported the accident to the police online - I would report it to your insurers as well in that case as your insurers may well be able to check if you have another accident.

Accidents on roundabouts without dash cam footage and or independent witness are 50/50 at best, give way to your right and watch for vehicles already entering or on the roundabout - no one is going to get a result there if 2 vehicles enter the roundabout at the same time and are driving too fast they cannot stop without hitting the other.

I would be in favour of all motorists paying £5 a year somehow to a company that installed cameras on busy or large roundabouts and where free to request footage if requested of disputed accidents - would pay for itself on the first claim....let me work out a business plan and see you on Dragons Den.

Great idea, but like all great ideas it would end up being corrupted and benefit the wealthy more than the people it aims to help/protect.

I've got to take my car to the garage for something else on Monday so was going to ask them what they thought about repairing it quote etc

How do I do that without claiming? This really is all brand new to me :rotfl:
