agw_01 said:7 days sounds like quite a short period for the footage to be kept for, so I was just thinking that maybe he had got hold of the footage and it'd shown the car tailgating me... something which would put the scenario in my favour.
Thanks
agw_01 said:Well, that's true Simon, but at the moment there's no proof that I was being tailgaited and thus intimidating me to get out of the way.
I mean, I can say that I was, but the driver of the car tailgaiting me isn't exactly going to say he was tailgaiting.
So it could be argued that I changed lanes for no reason, which of course is false.
Serj said:I have no idea what the actual situation is, but from what i gather someones persuing a claim against you, right? Are you in touch with a solicitor or is it just going back and forth between insurance companies at the moment?
if they try and undertake, just accelerate and close the gap. because if the gap isnt big enough for you to pull over safely, then it wont be big enough for them to undertake you.
Oxbow said:Hi,
I don't know the ins and outs, but what I can tell you is that under the DP law dealing with CCTV, they only need to keep the data for 7 days. The same reel / tape / storgae is then reset for the 8th day (i.e. Mondays tape overwrites the previous Monday, tuesday overwrites the previous Tuesday, etc, etc)
Hope that helps
Adam said:Can't see how you can prove you were being tailgated, do you not have any witnesses? Does he have witnesses to agree with his side of the story?
If you were at fault as result of his actions, but these can't be proved, I would accept blame and learn from it. You need concrete evidence when it comes to insurance companies.
