On this evening, i was driving my car on the 1st lane of the expressway. my speed was around 90 at that time, suddenly i realise the taxi in front of me was stationery and i did brake hard but unfortunately my car hit onto the taxi(maybe can say just touches his car). It was not a major impact at all as there was nothing happened to his bumper but maybe just some super minor scratches. The taxi driver asked me how i wanna settle but i told him that there was nothing happened to his car at all but in the end he die die wan win so i said claim insurance then.
What was the best way to help myself if he really claim insurance? should i deny that i was not there at all?
Face it Kenhon - you in the wrong ! You did not stop in time and hit the taxi.
You if you slightly touch - how come there is scratches ? Face the fact - you are not a car expert, also can be internal damages to the car !
Don't be a fool and try to deny it ! You will get yourself into one hell of trouble.
The taxi driver will sure to send his taxi to the IDAC which will take photo of the external and internal damages .... you can say what you want and even with photos .... but it is of no value as IDAC photo of the internal and external will be taken and used as damage accessment.
You try to deny ? hello he got your licence plate down, you scratch his car - you think there is no trace of your car paint on his bumper ...... you do stupid things like that = hit and run = want to go to jail ?
Frankly the damage is done, you cannot judge from appearance what the damage is, just call it your fault and unluckly day and just let the insurance pay it .
if you try anything, you would end up in court ....... look at the case ....recently for a small amount of money... by the time it went court, it will jack up all the lawyer fee... as you hit him from behind - you are a fault - think there is enough evidence to point you there, so ...... in the end after dragging on .... you may instead of just the damage - the cost of both side lawyers ... you still have to pay !!! .. if it worth it ? A few hundred to a thousand ..... grow to ten thousands of dollars ? In the end, frankly you still hit his ass, put yourself in the position of a netural judge - what the ending will be like ? The judge is there to judge who is at fault, you are at fault !! he will still base on IDAC recommendation on damages !!!
