Angry Car crash again :(


The same story like last year. I just stoped on red traffic light and after 5 sec got masive hit to the boot Car condition the same like last time but my neck filing worst


This is already third accident for last two years (first one was very light but the same hit to the boot) and I start thinking that I have to move to big 4X4 because my Octavia working as magnet (surprisingly because lights on my Octavia switched on permanently) bu unfortunately Skoda do not producing 4x4

I spotted the Eircom van. I take it that you are over in Ireland at the moment?

Ouch, sorry to hear about that, you ain't having much luck here. Make sure theres no expense spared in the repairs, or the neck could get worse ...Eircom (robbing B@stards).

Soory to hear that. I sow your car when in better condition a couple of times (LV reg). Looks to me that only the rear bumper is damaged apart from your neck.

Quck question: I pushed brake pedal when this happens, is it any possibility that something wrong happens with brakes/axels/shock-absorbers ?

That looks like it could end up being expensive .....for the other drivers insurance, make sure you get it done at a skoda approved bodyshop and if you aren't happy with it when it's dne ...tell them so.......


.all the best

Its difficult to say how much thats going to cost to fix, the bumper looks like its hiding all the damage to the rear panel and who knows what else.

Oh dear - you're not having much luck at the moment.
Hope things get sorted quickly and without too much pain (both physical and financial!)

Ouch! Oh dear it was a Mayo reg van too

Judging by the ripples on the rear pillar, it looks like the chassis could have crumpled. Best get a good garage to look at it.

Bad luck Shahoff.

Wont Eircom pay out, after all it was there van that run into the back of you. You shouldnt be out of pocket for any € or $ for that matter, no matter where your car is registered be it Latvia or Eire.

I rang to insurance company again and they told me that Phoenix motors contacted and proof new figures. But when I rang garage they was really surprised about this and told me that NOBODY contacted them about my car. What to do? Solicitor? Or just give to insurance one more chance?

Not being smart, but did they contact the right Phoenix motors? Hope things get sorted. Damage looks costly to fix. Regards David
