AOA All,
Unfortunately, I had a car accident early in the noon few days back (I will upload the pictures soon). Now what happened was that other car (armoured V8) was solely responsible for the accident. Anyhow we got settled on payment of 65% damages from their side and 35% damage from us. Although the fault was entirely theirs but I got it settled at that time for low just because of the fact that I wanted to finish off the situation as quickly as possible.
Now my car is insured and the insurance is paying all the damages for the car but the same time, the other party is claiming that if you get money from your insurance then we won't give you the car damages money. Instead we will offer you the depreciation cost (which is 5% as my car was new and it's been 5 months since I bought it).
So what your suggestions are? I just want to let them go that easily. Plus, by grace of Allah, I was fine as I had wore the seat-belt but my friend on the front seat got some head injuries. But he is also fine now. The whole incident was much taxing for me as well as for my friend.
So what you people suggest? How to get along with the proceedings?
Regards!
