3 Jan 2025 - Sigh, what a start to the year!
Today is my first working day in 2025. It was quite uneventful until in the evening when I was on my way home, a lorry crashed into the back of my car. My car's rear windscreen was smashed but fortunately, I was not injured from the impact. What a start to the year!
While I was taking down details with the lorry driver, a stranger on a motor bike came to render "assistance", claiming he can help with all the repairs and insurance claims. He's quite persistent but both the lorry driver and I simply ignored him and contacted our own agents. Beware not to take help from such stranger as they probably charge you a "bomb" for the repair fee and worse, you may not be able to claim from your insurance to cover the high repair cost. In fact, when I reported the accident, there is a question on the form asking whether I was approached by any stranger after the accident. Key thing is to remain calm, just take down the details of the other party involved and call your own agent or trusted workshop. Stay safe, everyone!
