Our car

[kado]

The man who rear ended us hasnt been in touch. We had to get it jumped start by a recovery last night and it worked but now the battery is flat asgain. I phoned the insurance company up and they are going to tow it too there garage to see if can be repaired at all. We think it is going to be scrapped. So we will lose our no claims and insurance will rocket. Once we have the recept for our excess they will be able to go through his insurance solitors. It was only a little run around and wasnt new but i was ours. The police cant help us and said it had to go through our insurance. This is what i get all you have too do is give them the reg plate of your car your not obliged to do anything else you only do this if somebody is injured. My neck is now realy hurting me but there's nothing that they will do about it. I am realy p****d of about it. This as set us back months now.

They came too picl up the car today. They decided even before they spoke to us that they would scrap it. The accident had pushed the chassie back which would have brole. It also did something to the fuel pump as well. They took photo's and e-mailung them to the insurance company when they get back. Then insurance company then will make me an offer on the car the book price what ever that is minus my excess of £250. I could come out with owing them money. I am getting so bloody annoyed now nobody will help us get the drivers details at all. I dont know what else to do.

That's awful! I don't drive and of course our laws here are different, but I believe when there's an accident the persona are obliged to exchange insurance information with each other. I would think your insurance company would want to find the other drivers company so THEY would have to pay....
