You can see my previous post about the incident. The update since: we called my wife’s carrier and provided them our account of what happened and they took notes of it in the account without opening a claim.

    Days later my wife was notified via phone that a claim was opened with her carrier and that the person reporting admitted to “not realizing that my wife’s car was there” and caused the collision this was according to the claims adjuster that was on the phone. The claim status indicated my wife not liable for the collision. (This is State Farm btw).

    Not sure of the time line but she checked the claim and the status is back to “under investigation.” Now the husband of the driver is trying to contact my wife via text from a different number because wife had blocked him- basically trying to get her to admit to fault. I called him and told him to stop harassing my wife and that a claim is already opened and to let the adjusters sort it out. What could his angle be??

    So frustrating.

    Wife was involved in a car accident. The driver’s husband keeps trying to contact my wife.

    1. Hanlon’s Razor seems appropriate – *Never attribute to malice* that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

      Trying not to get a claim on their insurance.

      You are correct in telling him to let the adjusters work it out. If he keeps calling, keep a record as this is borderline harassment.

    3. Just stop reading the texts and don’t answer the phone if it’s not a known number. Simple.

    4. Just keep blocking him if he keeps reaching out.

      If he admitted to doing something stupid and is put at fault, that is his problem.
