Hi,
A Lorry started reversing down our road when it realized it was closed half way down. Despite my wife beeping horn it didn't hear or see her and reversed into her car causing crack to the bumper.
The guy admitted fault and she's said to him that she would happily avoid insurance if he will pay to get it fixed privately.
Although I've been bitten by my insurance going up nearly 200% due to a non-claim incident I'm wondering whether she should inform her insurance. No doubt they will raise her insurance even though it was not her fault.
She has photos of the damage and only a verbal admittance of fault from the other driver.
What should she do - phone insurance and advise them of incident?
