Got hit by a bus today, not too bad but has left a nice "green flip" on my wing and a lovely little dent. in the words of a great man . the driver even tried to rub his paint off my car to try and avoid blame.

I'm gutted for you mate... I hope no-one was hurt.

Is it an open-and-shut case?

busses are bad things to get hit by
the drivers do not want report them

make sure you have all the details
reg no.
bus route no.
drivers no.

report it to depot straight away
and find some witnesses


bad luck !!!

there were no witnesses on site, my word against his, got all his details but if it is looking like i'll lose my no-claims i'll have to pay for it myself.

sorry mate, stupid bus drivers

was there no one on the bus?

Don't accept your insurance company's first decision as regards anything - argue the toss. Insist, insist and insist again.

Claims department staff are sent on courses to learn how to minimise (or refuse) claims..... at your expense.

what about that bloke walking down the road
who witnessed it all !!!!!!!!!!!



not that i would expect you to do anything dodgy

Sorry to hear it pal.......... hope you get it sorted soon.........

Unlucky mate, hope it gets sorted soon..

Bad news mate. Is the bus driver denying he hit you? Any luck with the depot?

Good luck

bus driver admits he hit me(hurray) you couldnt deny it my wing has a slight green flip now. but its wether his company accepts liability and it will take ages, want to take my baby and her new lights to jae but dont want to take a dented motor.
