I have a question regarding accident. I was involved in a "fender bender" a month or so back (was a no fault). The guy blew a yield sign and tried to merge in behind me and clipped the back of my bumper(major traffic BTW). It wasn't a serious accident so I pulled to the side of the road, we exchanged info, etc. Now I didn't call the police because I was under the impression that if there is no issue between both drivers exchanging info, and no one is injured then it was a waste of the officer's time (and that the officer wouldn't really appreciate having to come out to the scene for basically no reason). So I called the Insurance company the next day and told them what happened (we have same insurance comp.), they said they would call back in a few days... So a week later I have to call them, and they end up telling me that it was a no fault, because he told them something completely different (impossible actually).
So my question is should I call the cops even on a fender bender that doesn't seem that important? Or is there a better way to ensure that I don't get screwed over again?
