Eventually through social media they tracked him down and he got every penny of his money back . Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke with Avon and Somerset police this evening and only the driver can be prosecuted if the owner of the car comes forward!! So looks like the driver will get away with it even though I witnessed this happen and have 4 more witnesses the law states , members of the public can’t do anything to bring justice as it’s not my property.

They are 3 weeks behind ?? behind what ??..November and early December all they were doing was hiding behind dustbins nicking drivers with their speed guns (seen nearly twice a day I potted them) gaining taxes in the name of road safety and when you want them to do some proper Police work they can't help as they're 3 weeks behind....Unbelievable Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again the law in an arse Well if the owner of the car doesn’t care why waste police time? I’ve owned a lot of old bangers in the past and I’d be annoyed if someone dragged me into a protracted legal thing just because someone sideswiped the vehicle.

I meant more the fact that if I was the owner and returned to the car and found it damaged and there wasn’t a note left or anything indicating admission or witness’s details I probably would feel there was no hope going to the police. Maybe there is, but the owner has to report it and the police might say ‘ah yes we know about this’ , or ‘someone came in earlier to report this but as they weren’t the owner we didn’t bother taking their details and sent them away’ Which scenario seems ass backwards to you?

It’s been like that for decades, it’s how it works? I’m just surprised people are surprised? More important things to worry about than light damage to a stationary Astra with no casualties.

Are there houses on the street? Or places of work? Maybe worth trying to get the word out around that area as you have a certain time to make a claim on insurance and notify police, although not 100% on the police bit.
