I'd hope you have other Independants then because 4 ''mates'' aint going to count for much. Even if you slammed into him they would be on your side. I'd hope he fesses up to his insurance sharpish.
PS I'd not leave it until tomorrow to report it either, ring them now. Good Luck

4x4 drivers......nuff said, unless its a proper 4x4 like a defender owned by a 'ruraler'.
how can you claim whiplash if he reversed into you at a fairly slow speed anyway.
I wouldnt waste your time or our money persuing injury claims.
Hope you get your car sorted nethertheless, it was his fault.

They pay out for whiplash everytime as doctors cant prove you dont have it.

Did the muppet try to explain why he just reversed into you without looking?

I've spoken to his insurance and my insurance this morning, they are going to get into contact with this 'muppet' and hopefully i'll get a reply sooner rather than later!
he couldnt explain why he reversed without looking in his mirrors, just a plain idiot! and i was the unlucky one to be behind him
