I was involved in a minor accident a couple of weeks ago where the car behind me hit my bumper as he tried to squeeze into the right turn lane. As he lined up to turn, he got out of the car, had a look at his front bumper and then drove off. Had it all on dashcam. I also have a witness statement from a very kind bystander.
Report was lodged with VicPol and they determined it was a company registered car so they would need some time to find out who exactly was driving the car. The status as of today is that an enquiry has been made but no feedback as yet.
Is that all that can be done? Surely the fact that it was a hit and run is compelling enough to force the company to cough up a name by a certain date?
Nothing is simple in the world of insurance anymore :(
