Wife was at lights with baby in back. Stopped on a hill, good bit back from car in front.
Car in front starts to roll back, wife hits the horn to warn them. They keep coming until they hit our car.
Other cars drive around us to get by so no witnesses. Driver claims they didn't hear the horn and had momentarily sneezed and were picking up tissue.
Exchanged insurance details and called the guards. Guards won't come if no one injured. Wife was extremely upset as was the baby but other driver left even so.
We called our insurance people right away and got two quotes for damage done next day. Then today we find out the other driver is claiming they did nothing wrong, they're saying my wife drove into her.
I wouldn't mind if that was the case but my wife drives by the letter of the law and has never once had an accident or anything close to one.
So, emotions aside and given that this damage will cost 700 euro to fix, what can we do? I'm astounded at the gall of some people but I know they're probably thinking the onus is on us to prove anything. What can we do?
