This douchebag that ran in to me, today i got confirmation from insurance that he was deemed responsible. This evening he sends me a mail..
He starts of with this
"Mister Vandamme
On december 23rd you ran into me in the city of Ghent.
The damage is about 4000 Euros.
Then he starts off a rant about me lying, me accelerating into his car, all kinds of rubbish.
In his rants he even repeats that the cops told him he hasn't got a leg to stand on, and his insurance company that says he has got nothing if he can't get me to confess."
Confess to what? he changed lanes on me!
Its' a total joke really.
At some point he goes on the boast how he doe 40 000 km a year
Well big effing deal, he's not alone to do those kinds of distances, i do em too.
replied to him stating i have a different recollection of the events of that day.
That frankly i can't be bothered playing a I-said-you-said game
Basically from my end, the matter is in the past.
But since i'm such a nice guy, i felt like offering some advice so he can avoid the situation in the future:
But out of the kindness off my heart, allow me to offer you some driving advice, as you don't do as much km's as i do
( basically letting him know i don't care how much distance he does a year)..
So next time you need to get from A to B and come to that road situation
don't push your way in the left lane if there is no room
Just go straight, and take the next left.
(Also pointed out areas where he wouldn't have the right of way, and would have to make sure to yield to other traffic.)
Then go straight, and you'll arrive in the same spot, without all the fuss.
It's a less complicated traffic situation, it's faster too.
For your convenience i've included a little map
guess i'm a bit of a troll
But in the end, that's not a bad tip for that area.. i use that detour all the time..
And unlike him, i never drive into other cars when i change lanes.
