Advice please peeps
Sauntering to work this morning and rear ended a merc that indicated to take a corner but slammed on brakes way before the junction instead. I realise that I should have left more braking distance but the road seemed to disappear before I rear ended his boot door leaving a big scratch. Upon inspection my front brake cable had separated in the caliper hence why I didn't slow.
Swapped deets with the driver, it's a company car, but the guy is insisting I need to pay.
Legally where do I stand? Should I solicitor up?
Ruined a good commute too, right glute properly smarts and I'm feeling really sorry for myself 2/10
