WHat car was she driving? Keep a eye on Donedeal.ie gumtree.ie buyandsell.ie and the likes for the next few weeks looking at the damaged repairables. If shes not insured Id imagine shell want to get rid of it.

Do insurance companies need a garda report or form to process a claim? maybe find out the bodyshops around the area that insurance companies use and mention it to them.
