A few weeks back i was at my mates party, and i had my car parked ouside his house on the street. About an hour into the party someone comes up to me and tells me my car has been hit from behind. So i go out and the guy that hit it is standing there next to my car. He tells me that a dog ran across his lap and he lost concentration on the road. He also admitted to having alcohol in his system. How much i dont know
So im calm at this point, i get his details, he doesnt have insurance and i dont either. After this, my friend tells me that after he hit my car, he quickly reversed his car back down to his driveway (he lives only a few houses down). But luckily people were standing outside and saw the accident and ran after him and got him to come back. So im not happy at that.
So i ring him up and tell him the car is a write off which it is. And i tell him i want $1600 for my car, cuz thats what i paid for it. Anyway cutting it short, he wont pay because he says i was illegally parked. Now i went back and looked at where i was, and i was parked opposite a single continuous white line, im not sure if this is illegal, cuz vicroads rule book isnt really clear on it. And i wasnt parked oppposite a driveway, and i was just over 10 metres away from a small T intersection.
So my question is it illegal to park opposite a single continuous white line.
Sorry for the length its just im soooo pissed off that this prick could possibly get away with it. And im stuck with a rooted car. But i have eye witnesses to say he tried to leave the scene of an accident, not sure if that helps me or not.
Any help or advice would be of great appreciation to me.
