dont think so dude, you dnt have a leg to stand on, its the ****ing government ffs, basically when u sign your registration/licence it says stuff in the conditions like 'you accept all risks that personal injury/death/property damage blah blah to you and your car may ocur if you drive on the roads yada yada... they arent that stupid, otherwise noone would pay to get their car fixed... if someone hits you instead of sueing them u could sue the concil for giving such an idiot driver a licence... cmon man there's limits, as harsh as it is i suggest u dont waste your time and just get da rim repaired/new rims and be on your way nice n happy
btw ive just spent 2 months waiting for money form the guy who hit me... my cars has panel damage since and its ugly... i just spoke to a lawyer as things havent gotten very far and he basically told me there's nothing i can do for such a small amount, its just not worth it, and he said if the other party went to a lawyer the lawyer would have told them dont bother paying coz there's not much chan cei will take him to court etc...
moral of the story, lifes a bitch, ignore the bad times
