UPDATE
A lot of crazy things were happening since the accident. First the drunk driver reported my friend to police and asked for restraining order. He is supposed to attend court on 21st August. She is complaining that he called her too many times and sent messages. But she never responded to any. I sent her one message letting her know that I organized 2 quotes of damage on my car and both are saying its a write off. And if she doesn't respond I will write her official letter of demand and then take her to court if I have to to recover my loss.
She finally responded with message and even called me. She is saying she has lost her job and that she was kicked out from the house because she can't pay rent and a lot of other bull dust stories so somehow we should feel sorry for her and her situation?
She also called my friend and told him she will go and ask for restraining order to be canceled and that she is sorry for what she has done.
Now, she also said she wants to come to his place tomorrow night where accident happened and talk about ways how to pay for damages. She pointed out she can only pay small amounts per fortnight because she will be on Centrelink.
The good news for me is that my insurance is considering paying me for car even though I had third party only because technically she has no insurance since she was drunk. But that's still under question. My friend in other hand has no insurance at all for his sons car and have to ask her to pay for damages, around $2000
What is the best way to do this? How do we organize her to pay for damages or keep paying till its paid in full? Does anyone have idea about this kind of thing or had similar experience?
cheers
