    If he is says “great, show it to your insurance, it shows your car sliding into mine”?

    Second thought, if it was that slippy when you hit his car would it not have moved away on the slippy surface? as per @[Deleted User] something physics...motion... etc.

    Unfortunately I think you’ll have to pay up. You didn’t take any photos of the cars and do you have no proof. You admitted liability and if you send it through insurance they will load your premium. Besides he can simple as take your insurance details off the disc and report it to them himself, and leave you on the back foot. Offer to pay for the damage but have it inspected somewhere you won’t be ripped off. Sorry, it’s a hard lesson but in this case I don’t see any other choice. Might be worth asking the other neighbours if any of them have cctv or similar that might help you out.

    Indeed, report everything you've posted here to your Insurance company.

    "I heard a loud bang and looked out the window. I saw your car had of its own accord moved and made contact with mine. I thought no more about it and returned to watching TV!...lol.

    OP ask to see the damage. If the two cars were parked nose-to-nose, how is he after getting his wing light broken?

    Doesn't admitting liability invalidate your insurance policy ? If so you should let the neighbour know that there's no point in going to your insurance company.


    Was it windy ? Act Of God ?

    Absolutely not a chance! I know it’s easy to look at a situation in hindsight but for anyone reading like just never do that. Even if you’re dead wrong like don’t do it never implicate yourself like that.

    Is there any possibility that a third vehicle hit either of the parked vehicles?

    Interesting! 😅
