Hi all, first time poster, I hope this is the correct forum. Basically I was in a vehicle with my aunty as the driver. We stopped behind another vehicle that was also stationary, it was at a T junction and we believe the driver in front was waiting for the road to clear before proceeding a right turn.
However, instead of going forward, the driver for some reason reversed and hit the front of our vehicle. Note that we were not moving when this happened and they were the ones that moved. We parked about 200 meters away from the car accident and exchanged details.
The driver presented an indian drivers licence along with her phone number. She said she does not remember her car insurance details, but that she was with AAMI. We took photos of damages to our vehicle and theirs and went on our way. Later on she called up on my aunty's number and said that the vehicle was actually her friend's (who was with her in the car) and that it was uninsured, she would like us to file the claim with details of another vehicle that belonged to her and is insured. Not wanting to get caught up with dodgy shenanigans, we filed the claim with RACV as is.
RACV has now reached the other party. However, she is now denying fault. So it is now kind of a 'he said, she said' situation. I was wondering what are our options from here on?
