'Hi insurer I'd like £20 for my wheel truing'

What if your own insurer find out?

You've officially then been involved in an accident.

[i]It's another example of why, even if there's no obvious damage, you should always get at least a phone number at an RTA. I'm sure the guy would sort it if he got a call saying the wheel needs retruing & the LBS reckons £20.[/i]

But, surely its fine for useless idiots to go driving into other people's property without any comeback? Thats what i've learned from this thread anyway.

Of course Hora. £20 or a new wheel is nothing. Just a bit of inconvenience. Idiots in cars can do what they want.

Eh? So what you're saying is that if you get knocked off your bike by a driver your motor insurer will find out?

Says someone making an assumption about whats wrong with a wheel they have not seen.
Check that there is no more damage before writing it off as one of those things.
Take steps to make sure you can get the other persons details.
Doing these steps means you have options.
