Hey everyone, just wanted to get some opinions on this.

I was driving down the road in my ute, and the traffic ahead was turning right, so a couple of cars moved into the left lane to go around and then merge back to the left, as you do.
I went around, and then was indicating to merge left, when a woman from behind tried to come up my inside, and her mirror was knocked off by the back corner of the tray. (no damage to the tray)

6 odd weeks later, I get a demand from the insurance company, saying that I caused the accident, and I have to pay for the $1000 mirror.

I felt that the accident was not caused by me, but by the other driver.
One thing that annoyed me was that the other drivers insurance company did not contact me, or ask for my version of events.

Any thoughts on this one?

Cheers,
Scott.
