Hi all. Just wondering if anyone can shed some light on a problem I am having. Long story short, my wife was hit by another car while coming off a roundabout. She was in the l.h. lane going straight on and this car cut her up and o/s/f wing met his n/s/r 1/4 panel. highway code rule 160 states to take the l.h. lane when going straight on, this was even a single carriagway to single carriagway. The problem is he is contesting this and my insurance company is saying it might go 50-50.
1) How is this so, it was evidently his fault even with no witnesses.
2) If so, will that mean I will lose the no claims already taken off.
also my insurance co. stated "When dealing with motor claims we do not go by the rules of the highway
code however we go by the facts of the accident itself."
what's all that about??
sorry for the length of this and for rabbiting on but it has got under my skin now as it taken 10 months and it stil isn't resolved
any comments would be gratfully acknowledged
