[Misc] Hit & Run (damage only)

Official Old Man said:

An Enterprise Car Club van was involved in an incident with my Daughters new car Tuesday (1st) evening. Whilst it's all captured on dash cam, both front & rear, the bright evening sun hides the full registration.
So a question. Who is responsible? Enterprise whose van it is or the driver who failed to stop? Obviously Enterprise will see a huge scratch down the side of the van when it is returned but will they just charge the driver?
It's in the hands of the police (useless), daughters insurance plus Enterprise have been informed.
Meanwhile anyone out and about today who sees a dark coloured Enterprise van parked up with a big scratch/dent over the drivers rear wheel, give me a shout please.View attachment 199377View attachment 199376

Update. We managed to get the reg. Enterprise had no option but admit liability. They were good about it, so far.

Another update. Daughters insurance have said that she is liable for the £400 excess. What!
So been on the phone with Enterprise who say the driver has denied any liability. Someone hit him. I wont put the picture of him on here, but if it's you, well await a call from the police. Failing to stop after an accident is a criminal offence.
Meanwhile we have to wait for an internal review from Enterprise. Quite how they can deny a video of a van with no scratch on it passing a stationary car, which then shakes as it is hit, and a further rear video of van driving away with a scratch/dent on it.
And the police haven't got back to us so maybe not a knock at the door for the driver.

Further up Enterprise admitted liability. Are they back tracking?

Official Old Man said:

Yes. Whilst initially they had admitted the van had a scratch/dent and was out on hire at that time, they have now said the driver has told them he did not cause the damage. Not sure if he says damage was done before or after his short hire time.
You only need to look at the above photo to see he is telling a massive lie.

Well first, you have already put the driver's picture on here. He is clearly visible on the dashcam.
