Am a bit unsure what to do.

I've been accused of damaging a car in a car park with my door.

To my knowledge I have not done this BUT I had two Y7 children with me who were getting in the car and it was windy. It's possible one of those could have done this without realising it had caused damage or were scared to say.

As far as I am aware the accusation is based upon speculation as I was parked next to the car which was damaged. It was a school car park and I have permission to park there as my child is disabled.

Don't know what to do. I will ask the children if either of them were aware of their door hitting another car.

Feel sick at the thought of a teachers car being damaged by my car and not realising. Would willingly pay for any damage as i am almost over honest. I epuld always leave a note if i was aware i was a fault. On the other hand don't want just to accept the accusation without proof.

Have spoken to my insurance company who want details to put on file. I've contacted the school to ask that they provide those....date and time etc but no reply yet.

A bit of friction going on between me and the school over their management of my son's disability at the moment. The Head is very off with me even though I am not criticising the school....just the mainstream system. I don't for one moment think he would make any think like this up but it's not his car which had been damaged. Would have thought the staff member concerned would have approached me as I am in the school every day to collect DS.

Do I just accept that maybe one of the kids did this without my realisation and offer insurance details? Or not?

Don't know what to do?

1. find out if it was your kids
2. if they say no, politely say to school that as far as you are aware the damage did not occur while your car was parked there, and must have been someone else.

I assume teacher's car is there all day, so must have been other cars in and out.

Thank you. Will ask DS and his friend when I collect them....will stress they are not in trouble and I just need an honest answer.

Okay, both are adamant that they didn't bash their car door into any car.

Am trying to tap into an 11/12 year old mind to see if there would be any reason to lie. I was very clear that nobody would be in any trouble if they had. Told them it was very important as a teacher's car was damaged and if either if them had done it I needed to pay for this.

So...no response from the school regarding my message about details. No contact from the teacher whose car has been damaged at all. So don't know what to think now.
