There is no-one to claim off,your insurance will only pay for damage to the tarmac wagon. So sorry.Low car insurance adjustment from liable company's adjuster?
Sorry but if you hit a stationary object in your moving car, it's down to you. Get comprehensive next time. It happened me too and I got over it. I just had to drive a really rubbish car for a year until I saved enough to buy a decent one. (rubbish = VW Jetta diesel, with no turbo)Hi I live in Georgia and I was wondering how can i gets points taken off of my license?
i'm really sorry to hear that - I know how much it shakes you up as I've been in a couple myself! Unfortunately, if you haven't got the other car's number plate you have very little chance of making a claim, and from personal experience the police are extremely slack at following things like this up if no one has been seriously injured. Inform your insurance company and the police, but I don't think you've got much hope. The way I see it, its tough and expensive, but you could have lost your life so just be glad that you weren't seriously injured. Cars can be replaced, you can't.If your driver's license is suspended in one state, can you apply for one in another state?
erm claim, for what reason, that the waggon should not of been there, erm it was night and not day, or the car that sped off did not stay and laugth at you?.you are meant to drive with due care and attention if you had to swerve to avoid hitting another car you was not driving safely.
you must at all times drive leaving enough space between you and the car in frunt, I'm sorry about you crash but i think you should be glad no-one got hurt..xx
it does not matter if you got the other reg or not, your driving was at fault, even if you find them, they will just say a dog ran in the road, or a cat, you are allowed to mess up on the road your just not allowed to hit anther car or waggon with your car, sorry
Well did you make a police report and give a description of the car that caused you to swerve and then sped off? If you don't have collision you can't make a claim but if you find out who the person was that caused the accident you may be able to get their insurance to pay (though they most likely had none) or take them to court for the value of your car. I suggest the next car you get..if it's not 10 years old or older.. you get collision and comprehensive insurance then your car can be fixed by them.
Under your current insurance coverage you can not file a claim. This is why it costs more to insure when you include other kinds of coverage.
The only coverage you get, like you said.. is Theft, and Fire. Unless your car burned down as a result.. you're stuck
Which DMV for driving license Aurora or Naperville please help?
You're to blame, you have no witnesses and you can't have right of way when your heading for the pavement... try the old croc' tears act!.Sacramento's state, for short?
You may have a claim against the owner of the tarmac wagon.The Highway code states:-
Cars,goods vehicles not exceeding 1525kg unladen,invalid carriages and motorcycles may be parked without lights on a road (or a lay-by) with a speed limit of 30mph or less if they are
1. at least 10 metres (32ft) away from any junction, close to the kerb and facing in the direction of the traffic flow.
2. in a recognised parking place or lay-by
OTHER VEHICLES AND TRAILERS,AND ALL VEHICLES WITH PROJECTING LOADS, MUST NOT BE LEFT ON A ROAD AT NIGHT WITHOUT LIGHTS.
Is the wagon a trailer, does it have projections, is it over the weight limit, did it have lights, was it facing the right way, was it near a junction.
Report ALL the details to you insurers and leave them sort it out. If the Tarmac wagon shouldn't have been parked there you MAY have a valid claim.
Make sure you report it to the police as soon as possible, otherwise you may get booked for leaving the scene of an accident.
Going to court for driving a uninsured car? What Next?
I hate to say it Helene, that unless you make up some elaborate and believable lie how you're not to blame, then its not very likely you will be compensated for this. Third party is the bare minimum insurance you can have and it generally does what it says on the tin, i.e. it pays for the other person to get their vehicle fixed. Not only this, but if and when you get another car, your premiums will shoot up as a result of this claim. I'm sorry for your situation. Hopefully, as Philhny above me there pointed out, your insurance company will find a legal loophole. I'll keep my fingers crossed.Wait- who on earth or how on earth do you think you will get the money for repairs?
You are clearly at fault here. You cant cause one accident to avoid another.
You have third party insurance.. your at fault... you dont get paid.
About how much does it cost to insure a Lamborghini Murcielago?
What else is there to discuss?
The Car insurance company gave me a low estimate on repairs?
Here in the U.S., you, the driver, have a responsibility to NOT drive into a stationary object -- like a tarmac wagon. Sorry to say but the chances of insurance covering your vehicle are practically zero. Your insurance WILL cover damage to the wagon.More Questions & Answers ...
