| Post subject: | accident |
This morning, one of our drivers was stationary at the side of the road waiting for his passengers to get in the car. A vehicle reversed out of the drive opposite and went into the side of our car. The reversing car stalled when it hit our car. The driver re-started the engine and tried to continue reversing. Our driver told me that the force used in this manouver felt as though our car was being lifted off the ground. When the reversing car stalled again, the driver actualy got out of the car to see why it wouldn't go back any further. That was the first time that she had seen our car. apparently the rear window was so caked in mud that she couldn't see anything in her mirror. You couldn't make it up! |

My sister got hit a few years ago by a driver who cleared about an 8 inch diameter hole in the snow on her front windscreen and promptly tried to drive down the road she was very surprised that she didn't see the car (nobody in it at the time fortunately) By the way grandad were the police called because it sounds to me like the driver of this car was impaired though drink or drugs to be that mentally impaired !! |

I just can't believe it. Firstly we still haven't heard anything about our car being repaired yet. Then this morning my ex wife was driving the replacement car and drove into the back of another car. The collision was very slow but it still caused a fair bit of damage to both vehicles. Then this evening I get a call from another one of our drivers to say that his next door neighbour had just reversed into the door of another one of our cars. I hope this stops now we have had our "3". Anyone got the number for the Samaritans? |

Fortunatly the Megane looks like it is just the front passenger side door and I have a spare one of these that should fit, I will find out in the morning. Mind you I may still have to claim for my injuries after hearing of this 3rd one due to my constantly banging my head on the table in disbelief. |

Come on guys, only one of them was our drivers fault. Even with that one you can smell the personal injury scam a mile away. |
