Rear ended by white van man

Ahem. He's not really generalising. Van drivers more likely to be involved in accidents due to poor observation than other road users. Doesn't have to be white though.

Just blurb :? No mention of how many miles covered per driver per incident which i would have thought was more relevant :wink:
 
Nightmare! Nothing worse than someone damaging your pride and joy..... :thumbsdown:

Sounds like he's already admitted liability, which is one (small) positive to take away from it.
 
Hope it gets sorted soon Swiftly - looks like you got off lightly and there'll be no dramas :thumbsup:

As for some of the other comments in this thread - whilst I respect the right of everyone to have an opinion and to 'get stuck in' when they believe in something, there are some members that need to display a little more respect IMO, if only by taking a little more care about how they refer to others on the forum. Jonny :poke: :thumbsdown: :wink:
 
Wow how this thread has deteriorated :lol: . I only mentioned white van man as my last 3 accidents have been a result of them hitting my car :x

Either way it was my car the evil white van man hit so am mad as I suspect he was on his mobile at time texting. :evil:

I am taking the zed into the dealers to get a quote on Thursday, so hopefully won't be long before I have a new shiny bumper and karma returns :)

Oh get over yourself! Still quoting stereotypes I see. But I thank you for reminding me why I've stopped visiting the forum.

Swiftly, on behalf of my fellow "pricks" I apologise for any wvm who've offended you. Hope the car gets sorted soon.
