Motor Slightly Hit the back of a car bumper query.

[Inception]

had the same experience too recently... i also didn't take any photo... too shock... lol... just slightly hit a car bumper and the workshop quote me $620... tried to pte settlement with $200.. but the driver dun wan... so i told her to go report to insurance lo... seems like insurance claim is an ugly business... just gotten my first letter... =(

[.BlackSun.]

imho i think its really ugly as you said, my first accident was many year ago , i was still a plate and was pillioning my girl, i was riding a aprilia but i rode very slow cos still running in, i was riding ard 50 and out of the sudden, the cab jam brake to pick up a customer, my girl and me become superman and was in tts for 2 week..

 

my motorshop told me i HAVE to repair my bike or else they will start charging storage fees.. the repair cost $1650. i called my mum in tts to loan the money..

 

then after 2 years from the claim, i received a letter from the ntu* insurance telling me they check with the cab and he claim that the cab was not moving,he was picking up the customerthen i ram into it..(RUBBISH)

 

i called the uncle and F*** him upside down and he swear he told the insurance that it was his fault..

 

i then called the insurance that i could arrange for the uncle to speak with them. then he told me i dont need you to tell me what to do..

 

i got back 300.

 

god bless their son:cheeky:

sian, the same things happened to me just only today......the car infront just braked and i not enough time to react. jammed my brakes, front wheel locked and as i was skidding i hit the bumper of a car. is tehre anyway i can pin the fault on the driver?

[.BlackSun.]

in case he claim you , u just report to idac or insurance that he jam brake for no reason..

 

i am sorry that i am a cheater bug but i learn it the hard way, 2 yrs ago i was riding at havelock road and was approching a red traffic so i slowed down and suddenly this car passanger(right side) open the stupid door to alight, i broke my left hand and was lying on the road in pain.. tp came and all his 3 passanger and the driver say i was speeding n i lost control (his car have no scatches at all cos the door ram into my hand),

the sh** tp told me he will charge me careless driver cos got witness

(they claim they saw what happen and that why they stop to help me)

i was on my way to punch the cb but the tp stop me..

ZZzzZzzzzz

so i just inform my insurance company will do? a call will do right? then what should i expect? thanks for the advice

[.BlackSun.]

i believe you have his contac and particuler and he has yours, wait for 2morrow then ask him is he going to make a claim? if he is, then tell him that okay, we both make our own report, do not admit its your mistake, just insist that you make yours,i make mine..(this is important) then if he really insist then go ahead to idac faster then him, report that the car jam brake don know for what reason, just suddenly and u also jam brake and honk and skidded but still cannot stop in time, of cos u were riding below the road limit.insist in the story and your insurance will have a reason not to pay him the full amount of damage. our ncb are crap. but their ncb are important so normally they would not want to take this risk for a year wait and only getting few hundred back..

 

and of course i make it clear, its cheater bug action, just a method for a lousy man like me,the above is all only my own opinion.. the *correct way* is to call your insurance that u was riding very fast and u kept too close to the car, its all your fault, you might have to pay few hundred in the end..

 

cheers

[Dante09]

coz its only a scratch on the bumper, i collided mostly with the floor. so only if he is making a claim then do i idac huh. what if he tells me after 24hrs that he wants to make a claim? is it still ok to go Idac then?

[.BlackSun.]

trust me, he wont .. but in case if he really do then still go ahead to idac.. any thing feel ffree to call me 91711217

cheers

[Dante09]

he called me and quoted $800+ for repairs......i just told him to make a claim.
