rolandrat Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Last Thursday I had the misfortune to be reversed into whilst parked in a motorway services parking bay by a large HGV curtain sided arctic wagon. The driver wanted half of my bay as well as his own, I attempted to stop him but he just carried on reversing. The result was a badly damaged n/s mirror but could have been much worse if the body work had been caught. I won't go into the follow up conversation other than the air was blue. As I was close to Northern Commercials at Brighouse I called to get it replaced and the end result was a bill for £332-40p which included fitting and vat, a very expensive bit of kit. The vehicle involved is from a fleet that is based in the north east of England and the owner said that it was the third accident involving his drivers this month.

rolandrat Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 I kept the damaged one just in case I might need some parts off it at a later date, it's the all electric self adjusting and built in indicator model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
