Procedure when someone drives into the back of your car

The first thing you have to do is try very hard to look like you believe the woman driver when she says it wasn't her fault.

I tend to believe them if they've got big tits, so the Rob should try hard not to let that influence him... ;)

Can anyone tell me what you're supposed to do? Some bloke has driven into the back of my wife's car (which was parked with her in it). They've exchanged names and addresses (presumably for insurance purposes and not extra-marital liaisons). Minimal damage but probably will need garage attention. Now what's supposed to happen?
Regards, Rob Philpott.
for all the responses. As suggested I will ask the insurance company (Admiral in this case) for guidance.

I would suggest you report it to the police, and get an incident number. You then contact your insurance company and give them all the details including the police incident number. Or, you could contact your insurance company's help line and ask them.

Why? Are intoxicated breasts more wobbly?

If you also want to hit a few insurance men with a jack handle, you have my blessing.

Don't know exactly. Don't get me wrong, breasts are a fine thing the whole time. They just have an almost mystical allure after of a skinful of Belgian finest. Maybe I become more northern when I drink, or something.

Well done BTW to all those involved who managed to move the conversation from car crashes to the combined effects of booze and breasts...

Driving into the back of a stationary vehicle is almost always a traffic offense, most likely driving without due care and attention. You also have to report a traffic collision to the police if anyone is injured at all (or any party fails to stop). Reports must be made within 24 hours.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

You need to fill in the european format of the accident form which you should have received from your insurance company. (one of the two involved is enough). Make sure to fill in ALL the details including the checkbox if there were injuries. You each get a copy that you have to deliver to your own insurance company. They will sort out the rest. Just bring in the car with your insurance company´s details. hope that works for you.

Someone drove into the back of me on a slip road about three weeks ago - I blacked out for a few seconds as they hit me at about 30+ mph. Contact your insurance company and they will arrange the rest for you. They will look after contacting the garage and dates etc. Although you may need to contact the garage as well, appointed by the insurance company, to confirm details. Expect to have lots of phone calls in the next week organising things. Also expect contact from the other person's insurance company offering to repair your car. Also expect contact from a number of ambulance chasing scumbag lawyer companies. You did tick the replacement car box when you bought insurance didn't you? If you did the garage will turn up in the replacement car and drive your car off for repair and return it when they are done. It's a real pain the time it takes to organise everything - but since it is a no fault claim you will not be penalised on your next insurance premium.

It's always worth it in case the other party tries to blame you, as happened to me some years ago.
Which is why I have a front facing camera, when someone drove into the back of me three weeks ago it was obvious who was to blame - accident clickety[^] - it doesn't look like much but it hurt and caused me to black out for a few seconds.

As far as I know, if someone hits the back of a car it is usually fault of the one hitting, it doesn't actually matter if the other car was stationated or in the highway and you had to brake. That implies the one hitting didn't pay enough attention or didn't have enough security distance, anyways his/her fault. The damages are not the same if you drive backwards and hit another auto in the front, "crash-engineers" can find that out quite simply) It will probably be too late for this, but nowadays with the smartphones I would make a lot of pictures from different angles before moving anything so the situation can be simulated or well explained afterwards. About the police... it is always good to have the backup from them, at best if you call them inmediately after the accident in order to have an official protocol of the accident with pictures and a bit of "forensics" report. If it is not a big deal (and the other person is not a dick and starts trying to fool the situation) you can use (as other suggested) the european accident friendly report, it is filled and signed down by both parties. In case of more autos, then you have to fill one for each car that got directly involved with you. I mean, if you are hitted in the back and propulsated to the front hitting another one, then you have to fill two of them. But the guilt usually goes for the one hitting first and provocating the carambolage. Another good tip (already mentioned) is to call (the sooner the better) your own insurance's hotline. They should be pleased to help you (specially if it is not your fault because they are going to get money from the other company as well). It might be that you are "suggested" to go to a particular garage having a deal with your insurance. That can be a bit annoying if you don't follow the instructions correctly. But after all, the best thing is: There is no personal damage and you will be able to laugh about it with your wife when the fright/schock vanishes. :rose::rose:
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

1. ask on Code Projet. 2. report on Facebook. 3. tweet about it. 4. document it on instagram. 5. geo-localize it with your favorite app. 6. call the police. 7. call your insurance. 8. call your mom.
