    Default Fuming

    Well my lovely Vectra is now mangled after an unisured, drunk idiot decided to rear end it whilst I was stationary and use my pride and joy as a stopping tool. Luckily the Police got him as he was running up the road away from the scene. I am however very glad, and probably owe my life to this car, as they reckon he was doing about 50+ when he hit me, and I have walked away with just a sore neck and back, and the headache of loads of insurance forms.

    I had a unisured driver run into me last year. I used brittanica they are like helphire to sort it out. The car was insured by the person that owned the car, so they went after him to settle the claim as he had let him use the car. Then his insurance payed up.

    Rang the insurance company today, at half nine and by half four she was on the back of a trailer being taken away. The insurance have been really helpful and honest to be fair to them, which i wasnt expecting, even asked me if i had a preference to where i wanted the car taken too! The bloke who came to pick up my car couldnt believe that it was a diesel, said it looked too smart (made me feel alittle bit better!). Thank you for all your kind coments, it is appreciated.

    Did you go to the hospital? You should get yourself check over could be useful for insurance if you find in the next few days you start stiffining up.

    I would get yourself checked out, especially at that speed of impact. I was rear ended at the end of 2007 in my 2003 Mondeo Zetec-S - was a much lower speed impact but my neck was sore afterwards. Ignored it for ages, now I have to go for an MRI scan as the docs think I have a trapped nerve or possibly fractured/chipped vertebrae and it burns like a right b!tch most of the time.

    Also you should claim against the drunken prat - get him personally sued and teach them drunken prats a lesson!
