I went to Homesense today for a browse . When I returned to my car I discovered someone in a white car had bashed the front wing of my car without owning up . I’m so upset . I asked Instore if they have cctv but they don’t have access to it ,only someone called parking eye . Why do drivers hit and run ?

Sorry thats happened to you! My MIL had something similar, make sure to call the police (101) and report it to get an incident number for your car insurance. The police may contact parking eye to get an I'd on the driver. Fingers crossed they find them!

some do it because they are selfish, no insurance, disqualified and so on.

I’m sorry, horrible isn’t it

Some arse backed into my drivers side front panel. when I’d had it less than a week 🙇🏻‍♀️🤬. I stupidly followed the letter of the law & informed my insurance. The CCTV didn’t have enough light to get her (saw her getting into the car) registration and neither the police nor insurance could have been less interested. I ended up
paying for the repair myself £800 because the insurance company were insisting on a specific inconvenient panel
place for the repair & to try to avoid too much impact on my insurance going forward 🙄🙄

Police said that even if I’d got her Reg it wouldn’t have helped because I couldn’t prove she knew she’d hit my car as she didn’t get out and it’s only an offender if the person knows they’ve done it. Her car coming to a sudden grinding halt wasn’t proof enough that she must have realised.

Fucking stupid law 🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️
