Needless to say, I feel terrible about it. The owner wasnt there but I told the garage to give them my mobile number and I got a voice message yesterday from the guy who's vehicle it was.
Im going to phone him in the next hour to arrange something.
I don;t want it to go via my insurance, but what are the options?
As far as we the garage could see I had taken a tiny bit of paintwork off but there were no dents - although it was pitch black out so neither of us could see very well! I have no idea how much that would cost to repair.
If he agrees to settle outside of insurance, what do I do to sort this situation? Is there anything I SHOULDN'T do?
Thanks, Emma
oh, that's not good news - I think it was just a tiny bit on the corner of the van just above the rear lights. But still, like you say, if they have to do the whole panel, then it won't be cheap.
it could have been much worse. If anything like that happens again (God forbid) take some piccies on your mobile including the Reg number of the vehicle.
