Car Insurance query

My granny came home very distraught today.. Coming out of a garage today in her brand new BMW some crazy bastard in a 13C rust bucket ploughed into her as he was driving like a bat out of hell. Caused terrible damage. At least €50,000 worth. Not to mention the fact that he acted and spoke to her in a northside accent.
Kept going on about his beautiful car. She said it wasn’t even NCT’d or taxed.

I know she was coming out of a junction but she doubts this ruffian was even insured.

Matlock, have you any advice for my granny? Her nerves are shot to hell.
Coincidence or what but my niece is a Garda and was first on the scene of a crash where an old fella crashed into a granny. She thought they were married the way he was talking to the granny, he was on about her banging him so now he was going to bang her!!

Anyway to cut a long story short my niece got into the car to breathalyse him but she got a bit freaked out cause he kept staring at her legs and he seemed very fidgety. She’s going to get a male colleague to call out to him tomorrow but has told him to be careful as he might have a Garda uniform fetish.

Seriously jimmy hope you’re alright and stay the fuck away from my niece!!
 
Did you get details of her insurance?

Insurers are usually efficient in settling nowadays so everything should go smoothly when there is no doubt about which party is liable.

However, if it doesn't, or you are allergic to a bit of paperwork/press 1 for Claims etc, you are probably better off passing it on to a solicitor.

If the cost of repair is greater than the market value, it will be written off.

Sounds like a fair ould dunt if both cars are written off, so be wary of any pain or injury developing in you or your passenger over the coming days.

Very good advice Channa.
The sooner that Jim makes his claim, the better.
