.................................................................................

About 11ish some little toe-rag crashed into the back of my car, shunted it about 15 ft into my neighbours car which then went into their open back truck....They then drove down the road & at the top took a bollard out.....Rang the police but did they come... course they didn't

They never do Julie...I expect they think your insurance company will sort it out.

We have waited days for an actual crime to be sorted...it never happened.....they came out eventually but said they couldn't do anything about it.

Julie, sorry to hear this, and it is so frustrating when you know they will get away with it and you will have to pay in the long run. It really is not good enough is it?

With all the damage if there was a passenger in the car he would have had to have hospital treatment cos everything that was hit would have been on that side

Also if my OH's car had been out there it would have stopped them in their tracks

Sally Report 10 Apr 2010 17:22

Julie, yes, it would have been bad if drivers or passengers had been hit up the back like that.......I truly hope he has suffered in some way, they shouldn't be allowed to get away with it.....
