The driver points out that she had the priority of passage established by the traffic law for those traveling on the right (which is corroborated according to the indicated mechanics), so the police officer driving the patrol car had to stop at the corner, something she expected him to do. However, when she saw that she did not stop, she could no longer do so and “to avoid the police car”, she crashed her white Volkswagen against a light post.

Fortunately, the woman got it “cheaply.” The impact was not as strong because she was not traveling at high speed and she did not suffer any injuries. In fact, his car was still running, although the damage still affected it and his mechanic already told him that The repair costs would exceed half a million pesos.

The Traffic personnel arrived at the scene a few minutes later, carried out the corresponding tests, checked that she had all the documentation up to date and performed the alcohol test on both her and the police driver. However, Since there was no impact between the cars, regardless of how the accident occurred, it is not considered an accident between two vehicles.

Furthermore, because of the model of her car, the insurance company no longer allows her to have comprehensive insurance and she could only have third-party insurance. This means that she cannot make a claim against the insurance company contracted for the patrol car and that the company contracted by her will not pay the costs of the repairs.

“There was no accident because I turned, otherwise the patrol car would hit me on the driver’s side,” he highlighted. Even so, this unfortunately would not be of interest to the insurer.

The woman was grateful that at the moment of fear and nervousness about the situation, she was contained by several witnesses who approached her and advised her on how to proceed. Civil Defense was also present due to the damage to the light pole, which puts neighbors and vehicles in the sector at risk and which apparently did not fall on his car thanks to the cables that contained it.

Despite the bad drink, the host expressed: “More than the scare, nothing happened to me because I have a lot of angels watching over me.”
