Strangly though, Sunday morning the phone rang and it was the police asking if they could come round to take a look (2 weeks late but hey!) they arrived, took a good look at my photo`s ( ones at the start of this thread) and agreed that it did look rather likely. Anyways, yesterday they arrived back, this time to speak with my neighbour (who was out on Sunday) even though the guys parents have agreed from the damage to both cars that he must have hit it (or else they wouldnt have offered to pay as well) "lil Joe" is still denying it to the Police! So anyways, the PC phones me today to explain that they had seen him etc blah blah, there is evidence that he hit the car and he has his own observations but there is no witness`s to the incident, which makes the case "weak", his report along with the photo`s and statements are being passed to the Crown Prosecution service, they will decide if there is enough evidence to prosecute him (which I doubt they will), The outcome will go in two directions, if they think they can get a conviction from the evidence then they will prosecute him, in which case all my costs (excess on insurance) will be refunded etc, if they decide not to prosecute then it will just be down to my Insurance company to take it any further to try and recover costs, and as a result I`ll probs be out of pocket. All in all its been one pain in the backside! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

And my question remains, don't they have insurance on their car? I mean, I don't really see what the problem is. At least here in Spain every car has to be insured, so that when these things happen, the insurance company of the person who made a mistake driving pays for the damage their car did to others (or even your own damage too, if it's an "all-risk" kind of insurance).

All in all, as I said before it just makes it a little awkward when its your neighbours, we have those kind of weird difficult eye contact moments his mother still says good morning etc to me, but they other day when I came home from work the lad (who hit my car) sat in his car until I went indoors all quite annoying really You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

He acts guilty I'd say, if you was wrongly accusing him he'd be upset and would be barking at you. Right? Either way, give em hell !!! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
