Hi All,
I've just been enformed by my employer that he has received a police notice of 'leaving the scene of an accident and dangerous driving'...unfortunatley I have just established that I was driving the company van on the day of the notice.
I've yet to confirm the details of the alleged offence with the police, however I have a vague recollection of squeezing between two tightly parked cars on the day of the offence in the company van. Obviuosly, at the time, I was certain i hadn't clipped either of the cars but based on this noitce it would appear i did. I was travelling at 2 mph max at the time, due to the narrowness of the gap (so obviously the dangerous driving bit concerns me greatly also)
Naturally I would have stopped if I thought i had caused any damage at the time.I am now in the very unfortunate situation of trying to prove my innocence when the odds are clearly staked against me, as it appears they are going to 'chuck the book at me'
Has anyone else been in this unfortunate situation. Can anyone offer any advice?
As mentioned I was in the company van at the time, so an insurance pay out would be no skin off my nose.
TIA
