What is the probability of two Aveos knocking into each other? What about 2 Sedan Aveos knocking into each other? Then what about 2 Sedan SFU plates Aveos knocking into each other? Well, that was what happened this evening. I was reversing into an empty HDB multi-storey parking lot when I heard the other Aveo tooting her horn. Too late, we collided. Apparently, she claimed she did not see me reversing into the lot and was also aiming for that same lot. She then demanded compensation. Of course I did not agree. We settled on repairing or claiming our own insurance. Incidents like this are sad, and I am thinking aloud how I can avoid such a situation in the future.
