I drove into a Woolworths petrol station on the weekend, and paused to look for an LPG pump. I then became aware of a ute reversing rapidly towards me (from my right), which then smashed into the right/front of my car. Upon confronting this idiot, he then proceeded to blame me (there was no damage to his ute, about $3000 damage to my car) saying that I had smashed into him, and actually laughing at me and shaking his head when I tried to get him to admit what he'd done. Neither of us are insured (though he was driving a car with his company's name on the door).
The garage's manager assured me that his cameras would have clearly captured the incident, but told me I'd have to phone Woolie's head office to get the video. They're dragging their feet getting back to me so I'm worried it will be erased before I can get it (there're no witnesses.) The police refuse to get involved, telling me it's a civil matter.
Just wondering if there's anything else I could be doing here?
