Minor finder bender, 2 weeks later wants a police report?

Question:
I got into a wreck a few weeks ago. The guy I hit locked his brakes up, going approx. 10 mph due to him not paying attention to the road. At the scene, the guy I hit chose not to notify the police, and that I could pay for his bumper out of pocket. About a week later, after we have both popped our pieces back into place, he now says there is minor damage to the bottom of his trunk, estimated at $2,000. In so doing, NOW he wants a police report in order to notify the insurance. Do I refuse and just give him the money for the bumper like I said I would? Also, he had a TV mounted in his dash that was playing. He verbally told two of our friends that he "felt bad b/c he was watching the TV when the accident happened." Does he have a case or what? I think not b/c how do I know that trunk damage was not already there?

Traffic accident?


However, I am NOT sure if going insurance is your best option, since it sounds like you were tailgating him (in fact, 99% of cases where you hit a car ahead is called tailgating, and the guy behind is usually assigned 100% at fault).

Offer him an extra $500 on top of the bumper, see if he will take it. If not, you may have to bite the bullet and call your insurance.

Stolen car fraud?

If he wants a police report, I guess he can go get one and he has the absolute right to report it to his insurance. You should tell your insurance the claim might come in, and tell them exactly what you told us. If he contacts you again, just refer him to your insurance and let them handle it for you. They are experts at seeing insurance fraud.
