Car Accident

[Smoky]

Hi all,

This evening about 6:30pm I was on my way to indoor soccer at Bonyrigg indoor stadium when my line was driven into.

I was driving down Edensor Road, Bonnyrigg in the left lane doing the 60km/h speed limit when the guy driving his work ute in the right lane that was tailgating the car infront of of him decided to turn left into my line without indicating, looking in his mirror's or looking at his blind spot. His ute first collided with my driver's side mirror then proceded to the rear quater panel. The local Police were contacted and I was told that unless someone is injured, under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol or the car's have to be towed the Police dont get involved, I was advised to contact my insurance company to follow it up.

Other than that my line and I are doing well.

Now im looking for quotes for a repairer, I don't know anybody in the industry or who has a good reputation, could anybody recomend somebody?, my line ia a Gunmetal Grey R33 GTST.

Thanks in advance,

Smoky.

Shouldn't your insurance or his look for a repairer? Or are you after someone specifically reputable?

My insurance company (Just Cars) said that I should got out and get two quotes then they will send an assessor out to inspect the car, then they will decide which out of the two is most appropriatly priced.

That sux mate.

Louie at Xclusive colours is the man. Paints autosalon winners but is cheap and a nice guy too. Authorised with all the big insurance companies too.

The police wont do anything about a guy who doesnt indicate when changing lanes and consequently wrecks the car beside him???? outrageous.....wonder if they will look the other way if someone did that to one of their many holden/ford cop cars.....

Hi all,

Just an update, got a call from my insurer, they contacted the guy that drove into me and he gave them a completly diffrent story and said that I was the one who drove into him, what up with that?? A friend of mine is a security guard and I called him out to the car park after the accident, he heard the guy say "dont worry about your insurance company, dont call the police, I know somebody who can fix it for you, its nothing". Anyone got any suggestions on what to do?

Thanks,

Smoky.
