Man, some fucksticks just won't let you help them.
So said fuckstick rear-ended me at a red light of all things last week. Gives me a sob story about how he was only just able to re-register his car two days prior, down on money and luck etc. Begs me not to go through insurance.
I tell him no worries, I'll go get a quote somewhere and he can pay for the damage, no insurance involved. I get a quote and he's not happy with the costs. Starts telling me he's legally entitled to at least 3 quotes. Even though that's complete bullshit since it's not going through insurance, I try to accommodate Mr. Stick and tell him I'll go get him another two quotes and he can choose whichever one he thinks he'll be happiest with and get this shit fixed next week Tuesday.
Then he tells me he won't have the money next week, because he apparently only just registered his his car 2 days ago now, not 9 days ago (Right before the accident). Also, he's interstate atm and won't be back in Sydney till next week Thursday.
I tell him I only have Tuesday and Wednesdays off to get this fucking thing fixed and use my car for work. I can't wait for Thursday or it means another 2 weeks. Oh, and now he's saying the quote has to come from a repairer of his choice to handpick (not one of the three I'm offering) - a half hour drive away, where I'm to leave my car until they can get around to fixing it, leaving me up shit creek, bussing around.
This is all incidental. The biggest thing is that in trying to be very polite and accommodating to him, I keep getting messages back from him telling me how much of a favor he's doing me, because he could have just not replied or answered me and dodged out on his responsibility and how if I went through insurance it would be his word against mine etc. I managed to still be polite after this horseshit and in explaining my timetable, had him respond that I was beginning to annoy him and that I'm apparently uneducated (btw there is no punctuation at all in the body of his essay-long diatribes) because I don't understand that him getting paid on Thursday means I have to sit with my thumb up my ass which I already told him I'm not doing.
Anyway, it's going through insurance now and I hope he gets nose herpes.

EDIT: Nevermind.
Yeah this guy deserves nose herpes.
(I was going to say if you have his details then just pursue it, don't do him any favours but you are on the case )

As soon as things go sketchy go straight to insurance. Hopefully your car gets repaired quickly.

The upside is he'll definitely pay more now by you going through insurance. Significantly more than the cheapest quote you could have found. Their repairs, their price, his bad luck.

I had to learn the hard way that if you give people an inch, they'll take a mile. Happy to read you're going through insurance now.

The 'three quote rule' is classic criminal talk. By classic I mean comedy gold.

Re: Man, some fucksticks just won't let you help them.
Maybe this guy was actually unlicensed. I think you should contact the police with your suspicions.
Re: Man, some fucksticks just won't let you help them.
I would, guy sounds like a grub. If you eventually take it to insurance (sounds like you will), you will need a Police reference number to get the report going.

It's already going through insurance and I have his full license details. He looks like a meth head.
