Hate to be the bearer of more bad news, but unless there was vehicle to vehicle contact with the guy that caused it all you can't hold them liable.
It's a PITA but it's the way things work. I get the same thing all day every day at work. cheers Scott |

If the VL moved into his lane and hit him then the VL is at fault. If there was no contact then as far as the law is concerned no-one else was even on the road at the same time.

Yup. If this call came to me at work, I would place VL at fault. Depending on insurance company though they may class both vehicles at fault but send a letter of demand to the VL driver and see what happens.
The reason they do this is that you can bet your last dollar that the VL driver will say that you lost control and hit him. If there are no independant witnesses this will most likely be an each bear own claim. EBO means you cover your costs, they cover theirs. If you have insurance it basically means you lose you no claim discount and cough up your excess. As I said PITA. cheers Scott |

Bad news mate, nothing worst than someone else damaging your car and you can't stop it.
At least your insurer will pay you out ASAP and you can get a replacement!

Sorry to here about the accident. I had a VN run a red light a couple of years ago and take me out in my EA. Because of that accident I now have my pride and joy so try and think of it in a positive light.
