Question:
My licence plate bolt and frame bumped and dented a bumper - I thought I had the break on - but let it up while looking away while at a stoplight.
Owner faxed me two estimates. One was from a Body Shop and one was from the dealer.both within $100.00. Problem though - the car in the dealer estimates was not listed as the one I hit (different VIN #) and the car in the Auto Body dealer was listed as a different year - with no VIN #..???
I've asked him to clear this up by getting a 2nd estimate with the proper car listed..
I also noticed that he's asking me to repair the rear lower spoiler..I did not touch that!
My car has no damage (It's brand new, so I would know) - I was going approx. 5 km/hr. or less as I had previously stopped.
Any thoughts on my rights.the other car owners responsibilities?
I don't want to put it through insurance and use up my 1 - free at-fault claim (haven't had an accident in 30 years).
The cost is only around $500.00
Thanks.
J.

How do you find someones Insurance info by their tag number?
OK, you have already admitted that you hit the other vehicle so I am a little confused as to why people are telling you to say you didn't do it.You hit the vehicle and now you have to pay. You can either pay based off the lowest estimate or you can turn it into your insurance company and have them handle it.
If you did damage to the rear bumper there is a good chance that there is also damage (probably minor) to the spoiler.
Can you change over your insurance to a provisional driver if you are one yourself.?
If you don't pay the other parties damages, he can turn in a claim directly to your insurance company. You did the damage, now you have to decide how you want to pay for it.

How much will it cost to import a UK registered car back into the uk from europe?
I would tell him outright that I want an estimate with all the proper identification or pound salt! This is why I always call the police no matter if it's 50 cents or 50,000 dollars! This world is full of unscrupulous people and that's your only defense! Outside of that, it's his word against yours! My son had an accident back in November where he slid on the snow and hit the side of a guys house just knocking some vinyl siding off! Now the guy has told the tenants to get out and is demanding my sons maximum coverage to fix his house! The insurance company told him to pound salt too!He gets what the adjuster estimated and no more! The building inspector was at the scene and declared the home structurely safe! Just what some people will go to for that "get rich quick" deal! Hopefully someday our elected officials will pass mandatory fines and sentencing to deal with this criminal element!!! Until then, we all get to PAY!!!!
I like the state of Washington's way of handling this! Every accident the police officer takes umpteen photos!!! Hard to play any games in that state! I always keep a throw away Kodak in the glove box just for that very reason!

If it looks like they are trying to scam you, tell them the deal is off. If they try to claim damage,Tell them to turn it in to their insurance, and once their insurance contacts you, show your insurance that your vehicle, being new, has no damage and have them deny the other person's claim based on there being no damage. If they are trying to get over on you, they deserve nothing.Can you replace a lost sticker registration?
