  • Accusation of motor vehicle liability damage despite innocence

    Hello, I was accused in July this year of having caused a rockfall in a two-lane construction site due to an overtaking manoeuvre with excessive speed. However, since I still have a good memory that there was a lot of split on the road and I did not want to damage the vehicle myself, I kept exactly the speed limit. So I did not overtake anyone and certainly not too fast. Quite the contrary: I was from some other A utos overtaken, which in turn were considerably too fast (for the specified speed limit). I also didn’t notice anything about the incident on the ground, since no one has made me aware of anything. Only 2 weeks later I received a letter from my car insurance company, where I had to comment on the incident. I described the whole as here and that I was not aware of any guilt. In the meantime, I was upgraded in my liability yesterday I received a letter that the plaintiff had a witness and that my insurance now regulated the damage 100%. But how can it now be that a definatively lying (!!!) testimony leads to me being an innocent person sitting at my expense of the upgrade? Then could anyone do that, who has his stone stroke replaced free of charge? n. Just write down a license plate in a construction site and get in touch with his insurance company. And if they cross the line, just pull the brother in as a witness and let him lie as well!? Can you help me how to proceed? Thank you! Greeting Alex

  • Insurance requires photos

    About six weeks ago, my car rolled onto my neighbor’s van (Toyota Picnic). Except for a few scratches in the paint on the bumper at my neighbor’s. I reported the damage of my insurance, because I was responsible for the rolling car and my neighbor drove to the workshop. There was a new bumper ordered. This then apparently arrived after a long delivery time, as my neighbor drove around with the scratched bumper for a whole five weeks. Yesterday my neighbour asked me if I had photos of his car, since the insurance now wants to see some, but he and his workshop didn’t make any. My neighbour said one day after the accident that the workshop had to replace the bumper because it had broken. I then looked at this again carefully and could not detect a crack or break. I then found this out to my insurance company. Can the insurance company refuse to regulate the damage because there are no photos available? After all, the workshop could have exchanged more than necessary. And what if the insurance company does not want to pay? Can my neighbour then demand the money from me? In addition, my neighbour told me yesterday that I had to pay the rental car that was due to him, even if he did not use it. Do I have to pay here or my insurance? Thank you for your help in advance. Greetings Tim.

  • Order for lack of insurance coverage, cars sold!

    Hello people! I have a huge problem with the road traffic office. The following: on 27.02. I registered my Omega, registered in Viersen, at the road traffic office Düsseldorf. On the same day the car was sold and picked up, he is currently driving through Siberia. After a few weeks I demanded from the tax office the refund of the too much pay amounts. Response of the tax office: until now no cancellation has been received, please contact the road traffic office. Well, I got about 3 weeks ago. If the D’dorf Road Traffic Office asked to send a duplicate of the registration to the Viersen Road Traffic Office, this has also happened. Today I receive a payment note from the tax office about car taxes and from the Viersen Road Traffic Office an order for lack of insurance protection combined with an administrative fee, I should present registration plates etc. within three days at the Viersen Road Traffic Office. Sorry, but what are these sleeping caps? I know no Did anyone have a similar problem here? Thank you very much!

  • Insurance off-take

    We from the “sat.1 automagazine” look for case examples on the topic “Insurance arbitrariness”, i.e. persons who feel treated unjustly in the regulation of a damage – ripped off; persons who have flown out of the cash insurance, for example after 2 accidents or who have been unfairly upgraded in the damage-free class. Or also drivers who have problems finding a new insurance after they have been terminated. If someone feels addressed and Call us at 06131 – 600 2642 or email me: [email protected] or a colleague:[email protected] Bernd Raschke, editor “das sat.1 automagazin

  • Management of wild game damage

    Hello, last night in a place where I parked my car, cattle broke out. The cattle left some scratches, damage to the SWRA and a 4cm bump. I was only one of several people affected. The police was alamed and took note of the affected marks, but without taking a close look at the damage. (probably because of darkness at 0 o’clock) Now my question: How should I proceed best to get away still reasonably well or how is the r further procedure? Insurance number of the keeper of the cattle was communicated to me about another damaged person Thank you in advance! Greetings Marc

  • SF discount 30% with 27 years

    I’ve had my driver’s license for more than 9 years and have been driving nearly 300000 km since then without a self-inflicted accident and no significant parking tickets. However, my cars were always registered on my father or mother. Currently my car runs on my mother with an SF discount of 30% (Allianz). Now I had hoped that I could take over this 30% by now. However, according to Allianz insurance, this is not possible, since I have not yet reached them because of my age. Has any of you had a different (= better) experience with another insurance? Greetings, Holger P.S. I didn’t find anything in the FAQs or in the forum. If there was a topic before, then I would be grateful for a link.

  • Scooter – wrong oil fuelled

    Moin people, I’m new to this forum and I know that there has already been such a topic, but I couldn’t relate it to my situation. I don’t know much about scooters and engines, but I’d like to look at it myself instead of going to a workshop, especially since the items aren’t really expensive. I recently bought an Explorer Race GT 50, with an expanded oil tank, which is why I have to fill it up in advance. I was in a hurry in the morning and when I was off the tank was empty. In the hectic I picked up a tank, which is actually intended for my outboard engine, I thought, there is also super in it and 1:50 2T oil. I started it a few times, but it always went out again after a short time. In retrospect I didn’t think that there is 2T oil for a water-cooled outboard engine and not for an air-cooled engine. I let the tank run out and filled the right mixture. I suspect that the wrong oil has burned pistons, cylinders and carburetors. Could that be? Thank you in advance for your answers.

  • Speedfight 3 No spark after several ups and downs

    Speedfight 3 AC Hey, now it also caught me and I have to ask in the forum for advice. I screwed the scooter up and down several times after a ride, because my main stand was fixed. After my main stand was free again (about 2 hours after) I wanted to go again and the scooter did not go on any more. No spark! CDI exchanged, rectifier exchanged, spark plug, spark plug, ignition coil exchanged, nothing. I measured after several desperate days now, possibly one can read from it exactly what is broken or what it is about. See Appendix PDF Must currently use the bike to school… Greeting Marc

  • 125ger with class B driver’s license?

    Is it already known whether the amendment of the law will eventually make it to Germany and what will it look like in the other EU countries? Here is an extract from ÖAMTC: Light motorcycle up to 125 cc with the B-driver’s licence The B-driver’s licence allows a motorcycle with a cylinder capacity of no more than 125 cc and an engine power of no more than 11 kW to be steered. Requirements: •At least 5 years of continuous possession of a valid driving licence in class B •No further driving licence test It limitations •Proof of practical driving lessons to the extent of a total of at least 6 hours in driving schools or at a car driver’s club (see link below) •Registration of code 111 in the driver’s license (priorly not allowed to drive!) Driving on motorways is allowed, as light motorcycles have the required design speed of at least 60 km/h and can also exceed this speed. Currently, a 125 cc motorcycle with the B driver’s license is not only allowed in Ö I would like to thank the rapporteur for his excellent report, and I would like to thank him very much for his excellent report.
