mugged how are you proceeding with litigation? are you getting money back from MIB? did you have to get your insurance company involved?
If you're hit by an uninsured driver, you'er pretty much f#@ked in this country, claim is done on my policy, so I am left to cover the cost of the premiums over the next five years. He goes to court and gets a conviction and a fine, he won't pay the fine because he's on benefits and doesn't work so it will be written off and he gets blacklisted. So I keep his sorry ass alive paying my taxes and then when he crashes my car I have to pick up the bill!? There is something wrong with this country!
Next step MIB claim for depreciation, increase in premiums for the next 5 years, excess, whiplash to my missus. Problem is the police were partly responsible for the accident because they were chasing this guy. It's all a bit messy and I hate it
Ohh man, I only just seen this thread...havent been on here in a while. Im so sorry to see whats happened Jerry...your car was immaculate!
Really hope that you and your misses were ok and the stupid **** gets everything thrown at him.
First of all nice car mate, 2nd is a bit of advice.... If the police were persuing the biker at the time then the accident would be classed as a 'POLACC' (Police Accident). This means that the police have a certian amount of liability. The police dont have insurance as such, just a large amount of money put up as 'Security' if something does happen. I think it's more than worth speaking to citizens advice/solicitor and see where you can go with this, I wouldnt let it stand!!....
All the best and I hope she comes back as new
