Accident on PC World Car Park

[dylanf]

About an hour ago, a van reversed into my car and just drove off.

I wasn't bothered about the bump, but what really pisses me off is the guy just drove off. Luckily the idiot had his company name plastered on the side of the vehicle so to shame them here are the details.

Name & Registered Office:
BLUE CABLE LIMITED
1ST FLOOR, 9 BRIDGE STREET
STAFFORD
ST16 2HL
Company No. 05656281

It just pisses me off so much. Time to subscribe them to loads of pron i think.

Being local I'd personally pay them a visit and ask for cost of repairs as an alternative to insurance claim. Say you had witnesses and it's likely to worry them a bit.

Don't they have cameras on that car park?

EDIT: You got a phone number? Get an old modem and set it to auto dial the company phone every ten seconds, for one ring.

So much more effective than pushing a dog turd through their letter box.

If you saw them do it... why not ask them to pay for the damage before taking things further....

I do agree they are twunts for driving off but at least get them to pay up THEN do the things you suggest.

Did you report it to the police, as its leaving the scene of an accident?

Did you report it to the police, as its leaving the scene of an accident?

Would they even be interested as it's on private land rather than a public highway?

 

[tek-monkey]

TBH I doubt they'd care if it was on a public highway either, if there's little damage.

 

[dylanf]

There was absolutely no damage to my car. Im not even bothered about the ding. Its just that he drove off that makes me angry.

Were you in the car at the time then?

Playing devils advocate (and assuming you weren't in the car or nearby) if there is no damage what does he need to hang around for?

Or are you saying that he didn't even get out of the van to check there was no damage, or, that you were in the car / nearby and he didn't even apologise before driving off?

 

[dylanf]

I was in the car at the time.

He didnt even get out of the car to check if there was any damage.

Have you considered the possibility that, as the impact was so slight as not to cause any damage, the driver may well be unaware of any contact between the two vehicles, especially if it was a larger transit type van.

i have to admit i did think exactly the same thing after the first post...but i did think the revenges were rather amusing if a little unnecessary.

Theres nothing unnecessary about revenge. Its what makes the world go round.

So much more effective than pushing a dog turd through their letter box.

The dog turd plan is especially efficient in the current weather conditions as you should be able to find a frozen one which can be successfully pushed through the letter box with little danger of a 'backfire' and will then thaw out once in the warmth inside to be smeared into their best shagpile when they open the door the next morning...
