Hello
- The driver was my partner who was the permitted driver.
- He was running an errand for me that morning.
- My Mobility vehicle was involved in a RTA involving another vehicle at midday.
- He was breathalysed not far from the scene.
- He blew between 80-85.
- He gave a no comment interview (IV).
- I do not know what was asked in the IV, I do not know exactly what he was arrested.
- He was not breathalysed at the police station.
- He was taken to hospital for treatment, broken bone, they took routine bloods.
- I do not know those blood results.
- Should I see if I can obtain an FoI for the results?
- I do not know those blood results.
- He is was then taken to a Mental Health (MH) Unit, first to a Section 136 Suite, then on to another unit, where he remains now for 4 weeks.
- He is still under assessment, there is no discharge date in place.
- The Assessor from the insurers have pressed me for a witness statement, which I gave.
- I have not signed off on it as it has errors.
- Should I sign the amended version?
- I have not signed off on it as it has errors.
- The Assessor included a Road Traffic Mandate - Third Party (RTM - TP).
- I do not want to sign this, I have requested to the Assessor to approach the insurers to clarify paragraph 4, that was 3 weeks ago.
- How can I sign a document which opens me up to unlimited liability when the case is not black and white and I do not know any information of the circumstances of the accident.
- Where do I stand with not signing the RTM - TP?
- The insurers (Assessor) is unable to obtain a statement from my partner or have him sign a RTM - TP.
- If the insurers are unable to obtain a statement from my partner what happens next?
- I have not spoken directly with the insurers and don't know how I stand legally.
- My partner attempted suicide weeks before and was in hospital for 8 days. He asked to be admitted in to MH unit, instead he was assigned a community Crisis team. The cause of drinking was that he is suffering from severe untreated mental health issues.
- At no point was he told he could not drive or should notify the DVLA.
- My partners only assets is our home which is in joint ownership with me.
