Suck up to your parents. That's all I can say. :p

I will come out on top eventually - But it's the case of if he contends my claiming off his insurance that the problems arise, and court cases are involved -.- It was his fault, even the bloody copper who took my statement said he is at fault - There is no way that you can cause that damage to my car other than the way I described the accident, unless I'd hit a few bollards and/or trees and made it look like he hit me :p

But I have two witnesses, one being a Manager in the local Fire Station...

Sadly I am too young to hire a car or have one hired for me, and my insurance company policy doesn't provide a courtesy car :(
Sadly no, it was a single dotted white line, which allows you to overtake if safe to do so - The police officer muttered a few words about that guy under his breath and how it was not safe to overtake, but unless it goes to court theres little they can do...
In an idealistic world, sure :(
Exactly - This will most likely be still being contested (assuming the guy doesn't accept responsibility) around Christmas time - I need the car fixed today, and it will likely take up to a week to fix it, as there is more than just cosmetic damage...

Upon removing some of the panelling which was fractured, myself and my dad have noticed several metal support brackets for the wheel arches, light fittings, bonnet and engine fittings that are sheared and bent and battered - The force he hit me with was more than just a slight nudge... He essentially rammed me in the side...

Make sure that an insurance expert have looked at the damage before you do (or even remove to have a look) anything.

Otherwise you might end up in a fight with the insurance company if all damage was really caused by the accident.

We've already explained the damage and the car was picked up this afternoon - The expert will confirm the damage and get the car repaired...

The panel itself will have to come off anyway as it is shattered, so damaging the edge which was already damaged a little more to take a look in won't make any difference...
