if this person admit all the faults to icbc, then it is straight forward, you shouldn't need to pay any deductible.
if not, then unless you have witness , reporting to icbc sounds like a 50/50 case to me...作者: Prelude 時間: 2013-6-2 23:08
Take picture on the spot with your phone and measure the height of the door corner to the dent of your door. He can't deny.
There was a time I was sleeping in the back seat of my dad's car while my parents went into T&T, then I heard and felt something hit the car. I woke up and saw it's the door of the car next to us. After I got out of the car and talked to this mainlander, he offered to give me $5 to the chipped paint on the door handle. But $5 is not enough to buy the paint pen from the dealer and his attitude wasn't apologetic at all, so I took his driver license and insurance and report to ICBC to repair it just to teach him to be careful and understand his wrongdoing.
The final cost was like $300 something and the trouble for us to get it repaired. If he was apologetic and offered to pay $20 then we both don't have to suffer.作者: low_B 時間: 2013-6-3 13:33
I don't know dent can claim!!! I can really ask him/her to show me license!?作者: satil 時間: 2013-6-3 14:07
You just have to be prepared to call police is he runs away. Always take a picture of the license plate before the talk, and it's a good idea to have at least one auto upload photo service (dropbox, google+, or facebook) on your phone so that if he grabs your phone and destroy, you can still have record.作者: 4boybun 時間: 2013-6-4 02:16

You don't always have to call the police, but there are key situations in which you're required to make a police report like when:
there has been a death or someone has been taken to the hospital by ambulance
it was a hit-and-run accident
someone broke into or vandalized your vehicle, or
your vehicle was stolen.
In addition, a good rule of thumb is to call the police if you think the damage to your vehicle looks like it may be more than $1,000 (or $600 for a motorcycle and $100 for a bicycle).
(<<< My last car at last determined total loss but no police showed up on accident date)
If the police don’t come to the accident scene, your Dial-A-Claim adjuster will let you know if you have to get a police report.作者: Prelude 時間: 2013-6-6 20:10
You can always call police if you feel threatened by someone, eg Screaming at you while arguing, and you think he/she might attack you.作者: satil 時間: 2013-6-6 21:06

如果對方話 佢無帶insurance paper and driver license ,我可唔可以攞佢個license plate number 同車款去報cibc ?
試過有次俾人撞後面, 個呀姐死口話駕車唔係佢, 漏咗insurance paper 在家. 最後趁我返車上拿車牌的時候迅速逃離現場. 最後我連佢個license plate 都冇. 果次只係刮花左少少, 但比佢甘走左就成日提醒自己有乜事的話第一時間抄下車牌號碼作者: shoparound 時間: 2013-6-7 08:11
It has happened to me once. The drive did not have the insurance paper with her. I just copied the license plate number, the driver's license info, car model & make, etc. ICBC had no question about that. But not sure if it is OK if the driver does not show you the driver's license or any ID at all. Maybe take a picture of him/her.作者: ah3 時間: 2013-6-7 23:49
I'm thinking what's the "purpose" of having the information on the insurance paper? I have reported claims with the information on the drivers' license, the plate number and the usual information. I didn't ask for the insurance paper. ICBC was ok with that.作者: gn02156668 時間: 2013-11-28 18:15
Are we supposed to have valid insurance paper on the vehicle at all time when we drive. If that woman did not have her insurance apper, then who knows if she was covered by ICBC ?
I would definitely inform the police that she could not procude any insurance paper and request officer attendance asap ......... i am sorry to hear about your case =(
