Silver_blade Turbocharged November 27, 2009 Share November 27, 2009 Don't think about it too much. Really just part and parcel of driving. I bet almost everyone will kenna some sort of accident in their 20-40yrs of driving. Just make sure the claim is not too high and 'protest' to your insurance company if you feel the other party is claim way too much (high claim is almost a given).

Haiz... s--t happens... life move on... just make sure as the bro above mention..jus make sure its not exorbitantly expensive.. simply becoz ur premium will shoot up nxt time unreasonably... which might be better off settling it privately (sry not sure if taxi companies allow tat) .... just be thankful you are safe and sound Lets move on.. i admire your guts ...drive safe! cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinigaimi Neutral Newbie November 30, 2009 Share November 30, 2009 It depends on the Taxi-driver. My ex gf banged into a taxi. Neg with the driver to repair the bump and pay 2-3 days of loss income. Total ard 1k++.. The workshop did make us sign a no claim against each other. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobcar Clutched November 30, 2009 Share November 30, 2009 If there aren't any injury it is best settle it yourselves no point claiming insurance unless it is way above what you can afford. Taxi driver will likely want to have an outside settlement cause they have if I am not wrong a $2k deposit with the company if any accident the $2k will be gone.

Chooz Neutral Newbie November 30, 2009 Share November 30, 2009 I pity those who are not at fault and yet make to suffer for others' mistakes. I was driving on the right hand lane of a 2-lane road. A car filtered out from the side road on the left and without looking, he came out from the side road, cut across the left lane and straight into the right lane was I was traveling on. His car crashed my two left side doors. He refused to admit his fault and asked me to settle by insurance. FYI, he is a 21 years old dean-list law student from NUS, and driving a 2L sedan. Makes me wonder what future does our beloved singapore have when its lawyer-in-training has already shown signs of dishonesty. I have no witness to help me and this will be a case of "my words against your words". So what can I do? My insurance company already said it is a 50:50 case and doesn't look like they are willing to "go the extra mile" for me. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
