Hey guys I need your help regarding a car accident I had, thankfully no one was hurt and the damage was minimal. We decided to settle the matter without the intervention of insurance because it was my fault, and I didn't want to increase my girlfriend's premium.
Well the accident basically happened last years months ago and we exchanged information through the help of a police officer. Well anyways until this date the person has yet taken their truck in to be estimate the damage. Is there anything I can do to make him go and get his truck looked at and to get an estimate? The looming cost and wait is causing a weird tension.
I made contact with him and gave him the repair shop's information on November 5th, and he has yet gone to the shop. I've contacted him a couple of times since relaying he information for the shop. But till this date he has yet gone to the repair shop. Is there anything I can do?
The accident itself was a low speed collision where we rolled down hill about 3 ft into a truck's front end. We want him to go to the repair shop as soon as possible because it's the rainy season here in Hawaii and I don't want to pay for anymore damage. Sadly we didn't document the damage with a camera.
I'm afraid of getting scammed because when we called the police he kept on bringing up the price in how much the repair should cost.
So is there anyway I can get him to go to the repair shop, and is there some sort of statue of limitations on having to pay the fee? Because in my opinion we've tried on multiple attempts to get the damage looked at and repaired but he is the one taking his sweet time.
Hopefully after are comments more 'helpful' ones will come along. Unless the OP finds these helpful
