I suggest you also add a comment about BA Ltd's reply where they say the CCTV images show two people getting into the vehicle in question.

@Fruitcake The claimant has not mentioned this in the POC so I'm hesitant to add this part.

I agree.

In most current defences v DCB Legal claims, paragraph 3 (within the 30 paragraph Template Defence) looks similar to the thread below by @shahib_02  ... just change the incident date:

No need for more detail.

'N157 notice of allocation to small claims track' received.

Details and recap

WS submission deadline: 24th july

Court fee deadline for claimant: 4th august

Hearing date: 1st september

The driver accidentally drove onto Bristol airport land at night, stopped and saw a sign saying no stopping, and tried to drive off but two passengers were running to the car and jumped in before they could drive off.

I'm doing all this admin on behalf of the defendant.

No keeper liability still maintained to this point.

Please can I get a peer review of the witness statement? 🙏 I copied bits from the RRTechie post but not sure what else to add. You can leave comments by selecting bits of text:

You'd get more views if you can copy & paste the WS into a few replies. Much more visual.

Some parts of it are written in third person but WSs are first person.  It seems to stop with no conclusion.  If you took advice and info from one of the regulars @Fruitcake, should be good, as he has posted the MPs comments before.

Can you show us VCS's photos of the alleged event please, and/or show us the location on a map please?

See green dot in satellite image.

VCS also have video footage of people entering the vehicle.

This doesn't make any sense:

The driver accidentally drove onto Bristol airport land at night, stopped and saw a sign saying no stopping, and tried to drive off but two passengers were running to the car and jumped in before they could drive off.

I'm reminded of comedian's Jasper Carrott's show where he reads out wording from insurance claims. Some classics such as

Going to work at 7am this morning I drove out of my drive straight into a bus. The bus was 5 minutes early.

The bloke was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him.

The telephone pole was approaching and I was attempting to swerve out of its way when it struck the front end of my car.
