OK... on my way home today I got into a scrape with a fellow in a merc. Theres this one way system that is allways busy with traffic. There are two lanes one for going left the other for the right. The left hand lane is allways busy so what people do is drive up the wrong lane and cut in right at the end. Fellow tried to force his way in and I though "sod that I'm not having it", he continued to force his way in and I had no choice but to use my horn as we would have collided. By now my cars front wheel was against the curb to the point that I was stuck.
I had to reverse to free myself (the sound was awfull).
So heres me now shaking with rage... I drive up to the guy and managed to pull up in front of the guy and stop, got out and politly enquired what he thought he was doing and that he will have to pay for my wheel... Fella denied every thing and said if I dont like it I could call the police... anyway to cut a long story short the man eventually gave me his insurance details etc, so my question is, is it worth me going through the insurance or should I just pay up myself, also is the damage repairable or will I need a new rim? I think they are machined stainless steel not sure...
