The woman who hit me was trying to commit suicide, she had her mental health carer in the car and she said to her ' I'm going to end it all' and pulled out into the oncoming traffic and accelerated. she was doing over 60 and I was doing 40 so quite a bump.
She was arrested at the scene but the political issues around mental health are complicating things for the police who want to charge her for Dangerous driving with intent to cause injury or death but so far the CPS are not helping. Can't say more at present.
Her insurance company invoked Article 75 which means they totally disowned her and will not pay out for anything or anyone because her actions were deliberate.
Apart from a bad back and whiplash I'm OK. Could have been worse.
I'm with Zurich Private Client who have said they will cover my loss but what impact on my ongoing policy cost is yet to be seen and when they will pay out is in the laps of the gods.
My Lusso had a bent A pillar at the bottom of the door and a bent floor section so it has been written off Cat B so has to be broken up.
So bought this beauty to cheer myself up
