Hey,
I crashed my car eariler this morning. I was turning into an industrial estate and hit some ice, ended up losing control of my car and skidding into a lorry.
My question is, I am wanting to settle the cost outside of insurance companies (because the only damage I have caused to his lorry is a scratch on the doorstep). If I want to settle it outside of the insurance companies, does the lorry driver have to listen or can he claim on my insurance even if I'm willing to settle the bill without involving insurers?
Also, the lorry driver's company is based in Lithuania. Does this mean that I won't be able to settle the bill with money; and that I will have to go through the insurance company?
Not looking forward to a high premium!
