Van pulled right out ni front of me I had to swerve to avoid and I hit the inside kerb of the roundabout

Both drivers side wheels fucked, kerbed all the way round both rims

Before i sort of gathered my thougts guy in the van was away...

Don't think my rims can be refurbed due to the Stainless steel edge right round

2 new wheels are going to cost a mint

sorry to hear mate,similar thing happened to my mate in his BM,with a fookin van driver again being the cause! :@ kerbed both his passenger side rims,and they also have a polished lip that might not be able to be refurbed.

pisses me off that they drive like dicks coz they don't care if they damage the company's van etc.

You should never swerve to aviod someone if you are in the right and they pull infront off you. You can't claim off there insurance if they don't hit you. I stay where I'm supposed to be, and if someone pulls infront of me and hits me then jobs on!
