Worse! He was in a tranny van, left lane. Flashes me to let me out, I crept out at less than 5mph and a kid in a merc scraped his left side down the front of my car! Now it cost me a £5er for an old escort headlight from the scrappy and a tin of paint to dust the bumper. Investigators came out assessed the my car looked at the damage which was none by now. They recorded the damage to his vehicle down to speeding! Now obviously I lost the case to the Highway Code! But turns out these two blokes were setting people up, trapping them with this scam and splitting the money! They used the same tranny van but different cars to do the damage! This was about 7 yrs ago now. They got caught in the end, but once ruled there's no going back lol! Never ever pull out of a giveaway when someone flashes you!
