I was just replying on another thread about CCTV
Mrs Builder rushes in and says "someones just hit your Omega"
went out and the white van has done one, drove off
fortunately we have his Reg number and CCTV footage
VAUXHALL VIVARO L1H1 CDTI 90 Reg No :FP15 FZM
taxed,MOTed and insured
I'm naming and shaming until I hear from him, which I think is fair

he was collecting someone from the church over the road
how very christian to not bother stopping 

as My Omega was in PARK and the handbrake not pulled particularly tight ,will there be likely damage to the park pawl   
it's been shoved backwards about 6 inches with quite some force

That's awful Dave!

No matter what get in touch with the police straight away so they can, eventually, get the bastards, and also back up your insurance claim.

I would personally give them no time to come back.  Let them pay in all ways!! Do not assume the van was being driven by the actual owner ; it could have been just stolen or an uninsured driver was in charge of it

Thanks Lizzie BUT.....
I'm not reporting it ,bad enough it happened without screwing myself with extra car insurance costs for both cars and probably increase in house insurance house and value decrease
I need to assess the damage and take it from there

Just report it, you will be claiming from the other party, plus there's the emotional distress this has caused you, O and don't forget the priceless China vase that was on the back seat,,, 0800 scumbagclaim for you.

So sorry to hear this.  Typical, these days, that people don't feel the need to do the decent thing.

I hope you get it sorted, but I suspect it'll be down to you. Mrs. KW had a hit and run a few years back but despite CCTV footage, a business card left at an adjacent premises by the driver of the van, several eye witnesses and the registration number of the vehicle the Police were "unable to trace" the offender.

Why, exactly, have you got CCTV? A crime is committed and you choose to ignore it.
If it's there to catch burglars or the like, the chances of getting a good mugshot are virtually zero anyway.

The police won't be interested Lizzie.

All information will be placed in their CBA (can't be arsed  no further action file) .

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Pretty much the same response for burglary.

[Doctor Gollum]

As an involved party, you also have a legal obligation to report it. Do so, find out who their insurer was and pursue a claim directly with them.

I don't recall saying I was going to "ignore it" 
I have "irons in the fire"so to speak
not actual branding irons , that would be barbaric , the sort of thing an angry mental  builder type would resort too

Kill the driver and report back.

They will and they may even already be "interested" in this party. Do not just assume that the police cannot help.  That way things will get a lot worse with the arses of society thinking they can get away with it, and if alleged offences are not reported, they will!

More officers are now being recruited, so do not give up on the justice system - yet!
