She started off on a tack...why did you stop. I gently explained that it was her fault, no doubt influenced by her being on the phone and we would let the insurance sort it out. Following day the insurance rang to say she accepted responsibility. Bad news is his car was written off because of a distorted floor pan. I was hugely surprised as it was no more than a 10mph (guessing) shunt and I assumed a new bumper and some paintwork on the wing.

I expressed as much empathy towards a shit situation as any other compassionate human being, I did not exonerate him of his obvious responsibilities
