Default Just Been Bumped!!

Stopped at a set of traffic lights on the Armley Gyratory, when an old guy in a merceds bumped into the back of me!

I got out to look at the damage, and hes scratched the bumper and cracked the paint.

Then the guy says he never touched me, and that he would know becuase he has parking sensors

Anyway he started swearing and carrying on and threatend to hit me so i just took his plate number and drove off.

no witnesses though unfortuantley, apart from the girl in my car that i had just picked up for a date!!!!

The girl was bad luck, son let that be a lesson, go to police station and report this asap and tell your insurance comp too, if you fell you wish to take it with them, what would have been good and very useful would have been some pics straight away from the camera phone, hope you get it sorted..

Nightmare! Sorry to hear about it.

Make sure you don't let him off the hook or let your insurance company fob you off with you pay yours and he pays his. He went in the back of you - end of story. He was either driving too close or not paying attention.

I didnt drive off, he started threatening me and then got in his car and drove off.

Been to see the Police today, and the car is not registered to the name and address he gave me

There going to try track him down and prosecute him for failing to provide insurance details.

So nothing much i can do from here, luckily though the car isnt badly damaged just some minor scratches.

Mick, the girl is 21 so fully legal

Welcome is a Greeting to greet or hail. To say Hello, good to see you, an initial sign of friendship
