> Its simple. Call his bluff. Ignore him. Don’t contact your insurance company. Drag it out for 7 days and your legally free. He has no insurance info. If he was a lawyer he would have had you in a tighter spot. With little to no negotiation power. Such as insurance info. Verbal agreements do not completely exist in this type of situation. They have not much weight. He has no documented proof. He would not get a lawyer to come after you for the funds because it would cost way to much. If he was smart he would take you to small claims court. But his claim would have no weight. No proof you did the damages to his vehicle. In an Auto Accident always keep a camera to document the damages and positions of the vehicles. Also he would have made a police report and would have provided you a copy of it. He would have also went to a collision center to have the damages documented. Hes bluffing in order to obtain a cash grab from you.

The problem is he did take pictures of the accident scene. I know he wrote down my licence number and has my name, cell and address. I panicked when he said he was a lawyer so when I agreed to give him the cash, I gave him my info as well. I didn’t give him my insurance information though. The next day when he called for the cash and I said I would rather go through insurance, that’s when he said he would get a lawyer to come after me and mentioned that he was going to the reporting center the next day. So if he reports it and I don’t, that’s illegal. Thus I have to report it. I didn’t have a camera of my cell on me so I couldn’t take any pictures.

… Its not illegal for you to not report an accident… thats your own problem. It sounds like hes trying to scam you. He wants the $500 because he knows there is nothing wrong to his car. He doesnt want to go through insurance because he either doesn’t have it, or he know that it could come down to a you say he say, and he might end up getting fucked.

Just dont report it, and dont give him money. If hes not reporting it, or calling you, then its not a big deal

> Yes, in that instance. Now I find people just turn without caring. I have had a few drivers turn at me while looking and I would punch it and boost out. People are fucked, no one uses their turn signals in Peel. Bullshit I tell ya. Yesterday a guy drove on the sidewalk while talking on his phone. Of course the million cops in Peel were too busy doing nothing to catch that one or any of the shit ai catch on a daily basis.

What you said is true, no one in peel uses there turn signal it pisses me off sometimes
