Beach Idiots

I had an accident where there were no "witnesses" Ie people in my car but not related. One of them just said he was following behind me and saw the whole accident. If you can do that, there will be no fault on your behalf. Not strictly legit but how would he know that there was a witness or not? Witnesses dont have to give their name to both parties in an accident. Good luck.

Did he actually stop to give you his license details or just make his smart quip and leave .... leaving you to take his rego number? If it's the latter, a chat to the PoPo might be in order since he left the scene of an accident?

Just hand over the details to your insurer and let them figure it out.

Yep prado driver, says it all, all details to your insurance company (hope you got them) and they WILL pursue the dhead

So far insurance company says I am not at fault - will chase him.

That’s a win, though I could not see how any other decision could have been arrived at when you looked at the points of impact. That decision was also made with them NOT knowing who he is insured with. Glad they record the calls though.

Does anyone get the impression I don’t trust insurance companies?

Im surprised the insurance company say "where you on a marked road or street?"..."no? You were driving on the beach? Well too bad then!" Just my 2c, you all know what these insurance company's are like!
Good luck with it all, hope they actually come to the party
Cheers Jim

Had a bloke run into the back of me many, many years ago. Uninsured and unregistered. NRMA chased him down back to W.A from NSW. I got a refund cheque for my excess about 15 months later. Might have helped that he hit me with so much force he pushed me onto the car in front (we were stationary at a set of lights)- they were with NRMA too so 2 vehicle claims to chase.
