Someone hit me last week when I was overtaking and I rolled my car 3 times, yay!

The doctors at the hospital said I should have been killed, the guys who picked up my car said the same yet I walked away with a cut to the side of my head, ear and hand and I suppose I could say 'whiplash'

Does anyone know how these companies work? anyone used them before and what do you reckon I should claim?

Idealky because my car was new and all my speakers were distroyed I want the whole claim (car and injurys) to cover the cost of my car I have now which was 9 grand.
feasable?

Crikey! You lucky bas! Shame about the car though :(

Never dealt with this sort of thing myself, so can't give an experienced opinion, but if I was in your situation, I'd seriously look at all available options of bleeding the other party dry of their cash.

kinda cool I walked away from it, not so much seeing everything, including the contents of my wallet and glovebox thrown about the field I ended up in.

Still, live and learn, just gotta treat every other driver as an idiot.

Depends on the accident I'd say.

What do you mean they hit you when you were overtaking?

I'd guess you'd need to be able to prove that you did nothing wrong and that the other party where guily of doing something wrong.

No harm in giving them a phone, most places like that will only take money from you if you actually win any (I'd guess they might take a bit if you do win though).

What did your insurance folk say about the car? They going to pay up?

If you're not injured you can't really claim for anything.

Shame seeing how people who drive like idiots can claim several thousand pounds from just grazing their finger.

Heh. I got £50 from one of my car crashes. Although, that was only a portion of what my nan had.. :-\

You might as well try, you can't really lose anything now. Maybe make it look like you've come out of it a little rough or something, too. Y'know, post traumatic disorder.. :p Just because you hardly, physically, hurt yourself doesn't mean you're not going to turn psycho in the future.. :)

Did you take photos of the cut on your head?

And um.. bad boy for overtaking. I have a very deep grudge against overtakers.. *hiss*
