warrior8 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 What do they want to make a claim for - personal injury or damage to their car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is no damage visable to see to either car than just deny any accident ever took place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukstudent Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 This is why it is so important to take photos after an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cam31rhodes Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 I no that now. So mad with myself but cause there woz no damage didn't think anything. Hopefully the insurance will not take it any further. May just deny it if they ring again. He not got no witnesses n no damage 2 our car so y did I admit on fone in 1st place. Advice please.....

dan-the-man Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Unfortunately, it's a legal requirement to report ALL incidents relating to car accidents. Even if there is no damage, this covers you in the event of such incidents like this. Just tell them what happened and they will sort out the rest. They will obviously keep you informed of what the other party is claiming which you can contest against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having admitted it once, it would be a seriously bad idea to deny it the next time around. Just maintain your position; there was contact but neither car was damaged, so what expenses is he expecting your insurer to pay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
