GRRRR!
It seems that as MK was turning left when the tw*t in a BMW ran into her this morning it is two thirds her fault. I don't know if you can imagine exactly what happened, but as I understand it, she was indicating to turn left (as you would turn right in the UK so crossing the lane of the oncoming traffic) and as she turned into the car park at work the BMW man overtook her. Except he didn't, he ran into her.
I guess she should have looked over her shoulder, but how the f*&k can that be two thirds her fault and one third his?
The result: We'll have to pay the no doubt high excess on the insurance and pay a premium for the next 5 years before we have a clean driving record again.
I am f'ing furious about this.
If I find out where this bloke lives I'm going to go round his house and wee in his shoes.
As long as MK is OK just "eat-it" as they say here! Just be as glad as I am that MK and J were not injured (I know J wasn't there)
ReplyDeleteSounds unreasonable if you overtake somebody turning you are not completely wrong.
wrm
I am of course relieved that everyone is OK. The guy was on the wrong side of the road with double white lines about 20 yards from a t junction. There is no doubt at all that he is in the wrong and I expect that he should be the only one made to pay. It is bad enough that we are inconvenienced!
ReplyDeleteI think that you should poo in his shoes.
ReplyDeleteCan you get some legal advice?
Not here I can't no. But it may be some miss-communication with the insurance company. Hopefully we will not have to pay, but one must remember that the socialist ideal would be to make everyone pay.
ReplyDeleteGlad K is OK - surely she was sent home for the day.
ReplyDeleteHave you taken a photo of the damage?
It would be bloggable if not needed.

I'll take photos and post. Not much damage, except to William's blood pressure level.

I'm calm again now, but you have to admit that if we have to pay it will be very very unfair.
