I had two dreams that I won a lotta money so when I was doing the grocery shopping on Wednesday as usual I bought a scratch card that you can win up to £500000 . First time I’ve ever bought one. I won £5 lol
My younger son has been driving now for under a year. He’s 22 . His dad bought him a car for £1000. The car was worth a lot more than this but he bought it from a friend who just wanted a quick sale. So he got it for a very low price. Well one day my son was driving to work and a car cut in front of him with a trailer attached and the driver did not allow for the length of his trailer when he cut in so the trailer crashed my sons car and ripped off his wing mirror dented his wheel rim and ripped off his bumper. They both stopped the cars. The trailer guy gave my son his name and phone number and said don’t call the police just call me after work and I will pay cash to fix your car. So my son said ok.
He called the guy after work. No answer after ten rings and a text. So my son went to the police station made a report..
He got crash services involved and got a courtesy car and a transporter arranged to take his broken car away. Hes just been told today that they are writing his car off and giving him £4300 for it. My son tracked down the guys address online and gave it to crash services and his solicitor told him it’s his fault. The guy totally refuses to answer his phone but they got his insurance details which are paying out. It does not pay to try and take advantage of a young driver.

Wow, right and the driver lied, glad your son is ok
Good that he was ok....and have ye a law up there that a crash has to be reported within 24 hours...can the psni get the other driver for that.... Haven't heard of a crash services company before

Well he went to the police the same day after work because the guy wouldn’t answer his calls. The police say they don’t have to be notified except in cases of somebody gets hurt. Crash services has only recently started being advertised on tv here. They are totally brilliant tho. I highly recommend them.
