Hopefully it can be repaired ASAP.Interesting story on the 3rd party insurance. Never heard of it. Had an experience quarelling with a Traffic Sergeant on not reporting in 24 hours which he made a damn big deal about it and wanted to charge penalty of rm300 even though my friend actually hit a cow and even the cow did not die, it ran away but the front of his kancil was really bad, car had to be towed. He went to do the report the next day coz he was working and he got in trouble for not reporting. Sergeant actually wanted something else $$$ coz the law requires accident cases to be reported within 24 hours.Another incident, a mat rempit school boy who was racing hit a friend's wira, mat rempit panicked, stood up, started his bike and ran away. This guy just decided to skip police report and just fixed his car. Proton Wira, small hit but damage was bad. A month after that, he got a call from police and he confirmed he had an accident and he kena fine of rm300 for not reporting the accident and a lawyer later called for accident damages claim made by the father of the kid who claimed to be riding the car and hit by this guy and claimed the car driver left. Case is still in court.So, we do need to make a report of any accident in 24 hours right as a protection to ourselves from such bogus claims and liabilities? right?planta</blockquote>
