Ed Does anyone here believe that Princess Diana's car crash was suspicious?

In a funny sort of way I actually quite like that attitude to minor dings. Admittedly I'm saying that after having someone pull up behind me and stop while I was in motion pulling out of a parking space where a van had parked next to me and blocked my line of sight, £2k for a single dent. Yes I was at fault, but I use that carpark several times a week and if I see someone reversing out of a space and know it's going to be hard for them to see me I hold back for five seconds dammit!

Myself and my mother were accidentally rearended a good few years ago (before I had a licence so mam was driving). The other party readily admitted fault and it was a fairly minor ding (cracked rear bumper). My mother wanted it off the insurance because she could get it done for roughly €100. The other driver wanted to everything by the book so mam had to go through official dealer who decided the bumper needed replacing and charged north of €2,000.

Yeah, I'd sooner have just taken care of it, I had an estimate of £300-£400, but the other driver came back (two months later) with a quote of £1200. On the very morning water started dripping through my living room ceiling...
 
Your mom won't have paid though, a rear end is the other drivers fault.

"Due care and attention"
 
Whilst I don't know for a fact that the insurance company paid up for the car wreck in the accident that killed Diana I do know car insurance and your various bumps is not the topic of this thread...
