all company cars carry a personal risk, there have been to much problems with "don't care it's a company car" kind of crashes...
So if one is at fault, one pays the forfait, generally around 1000 euro's...

The pull innocent face, i once did it with great success..


empty A19... Opel Kadett on the left lane doign 120... i come a zooming by at 160 or so.... and flew past the Kadett on the right....


couple of km's futher, 2 trucks over taking.... you know, one doing 90, the other doign 91
So i hang behind theeft one... and Kadett boy comes right past me... and tries to bluff me into breaking and letting him cut in... he's looking in his mirror , creeps up to the left..

I'm in a brand new Golf IV, he thinks i'll back out to save my new car...

couldn't be bothered, he came closer, contact, i gently nudge my steering wheel to the right, he slams on the brake... my Hokkenheim R16 wheel did a Ben Hur shred job to his left side, rustbucket Kadett...

so i pull over to take notes for the insurance, he threatens to beat me up.

So i say, whatever floats your boat buddy, i got kicked in the face by a horse at age 10... i can take a hit from a jackass at age 23.. no big deal, you'll just pay me more money afterwards....

he then buggered off, and called the cops sayign a fled the scene.. which was fun, as i was on site, calling the cops, that he fled the scene...

in the end he told the cops a bs story that didn't match the damage to either car, and he got in trouble over it...
The Golf hardly had more then a little scratch on the wheels
