Accidet after 2 months

[Merty]

Hi guys. I bought my car on my birthday 27 July. 3 weeks ago driving down the dual carriegway idiot on the left hand Lane doing 40mph decides to jump in front of me and brake at the same time while I am traveling At 70mph. So i applied my brakes and luckily didn't hit him/her but the car behind me just came in an smashed in to us. . Bad thing is we suffered some injuries , back , hip, shoulder pain .

The car is out now and the repairs were completed by Mercedes. My own insurance company they will but sent me to a corner garage in the back end of an industrial estate as it's an approved so i declined an went to mercedes and asked them fort help and so they are .

Doesn't sound the same but I wondered whether or not he's going to claim for neck injuries like the taxi driver's friend!

Bad luck to have two accidents 2 months ago.

Insurance is a funny thing.

I was crashed into on the motorway quite severely 3 months ago which resulted in both sides of my Volvo being replaced, wings, doors, bonnet, front and rear bumper rear quaters and 2 wheels.

The car is as good as new and I am pleased.

I hit my head in the accident, and it shook me up so badly that I didn't drive on the motorway with the kids in the car for some time.

I didn't take up their offer of a courtesy car because I relished the opportunity to drive my W124 full time for a couple of months - great fun.

I was plagued by companies (all contacting me on my mobile) phoning me asking if I needed to claim for loss of earnings, injury, uninsured costs - even the cost of phone calls to sort out the claim. I declined on every count because I was happy that my car was being repaired and that I wasn't dead.

The irony is, the insurance company must have sold my details to these companies to try and get me to claim off of.....an insurance company!

Nuts.

I'm sorry your neck hurts Merty, but money wont make it better.

Perhaps ..or it might have been the recovery company, the garage, the police officers who attended the scene .... the list of people supplying details to the Ambulance chasers is pretty long and sometimes quite surprising.

Or they just join the common database that insurance companies share to reduce fraud...
