I'm involved in hit & run accident. My car was parked overnight at designated parking lot & was hit by a lorry. The driver allegedly left the scene without leaving his contact. The CCTV footages I gotten from building management proved the lorry damaged my car & fleed. I also gotten the vehicle number too. I made police & accident reports. My workshop also managed to contact the lorry insurance to inform owner to make accident report. But I heard from my insurance & workshop said that if the lorry company refuse to make accident report, that's nothing I can do to claim 3rd party insurance for my repair. And I've bear my own repair either claim own insurance or own money. Even with video evidences & police report, lorry company dares not to report to their insurance. Both insurance & workshop mentioned such case is very common in Singapore. I don't really understand the logic. Does that mean the faulter gets scot free? And police cannot do anything? Even if you pursue legal action & the lorry company doesn't comply, I could even waste my money on legal. The law allows such thing to happen?
