Disgruntled Third Party Claim

I, Salathiel Naidoo owner of Toyota Corolla 1997, reg no NJ51822 was involved in a motor vehicle accident with KIA K2700 bakkie, white in colour REG No: ND 656196, driven by Lindelani Yokuqhuba. The vehicle is registered to CNS Trading, Morningside. The accident took place on the 18th of August 2021 at approximately 17.20 pm on Inanda and Newlands West Intersection. An accident report (AR No. 104/08/2021) was done on the same day, having drivers of both the vehicles present at the police station. Initially I had great difficulty in locating the owner of the vehicle. Later on after opening an accident report, one of the police officers managed to trace the company and spoke to a gentleman by the name of Roy who requested for 3 quotations which I submitted to him, which he received. He also stated verbally to me that he was willing to pay cash if the quotation was reasonable. On the 6th of September 2021 (Monday), I received an email from Nosipho Maphanga from legal claims department Outsurance, who requested that a liability claim form be filled in, together with pictures of the damage and a short video of the entire vehicle and submit to legal claims which I did via Email and they acknowledged receipt of my email and issued a reference number : *** On the 8th of September 2021 I received an email from Tshiamo Konopi from the Outsurance legal claims department which was in direct contradiction to all our previous discussions to my amazement. I have been communicating in good faith to all the relevant parties and now I am very disappointed with the outcome of this situation. Therefore I now write to you requesting that you please assist in resolving this matter in a positive light. Thank You Await your urgent respond at your earliest convenience.

Good afternoon Christelle,

Following our private reply of last week, Tshiamo from our legal team has been in contact with you.

He discussed that we have conflicting versions regarding the accident and will need a witness statement to corroborate your version.

On receipt of the requested proof, we will be able to provide you with further feedback.

We apologise for the inconvenience and frustration caused.

Regards,
OUTsurance

Reviewer Update
Kindly be advised that I did inform Tshiamo Konopi about the witness that was present on the scene of the accident who was driving behind me heading home. i even have proof of the witnesses vehicle in the photos when i took the photo of the accident.

after informing him of the witness i did not receive any feedback regarding my claim.

Please assist in the matter with utmost urgency as I need to be compensated for the damages caused to my vehicle.

To my knowledge, I was in the lane that ONLY allows vehicles to turn LEFT and to go STRAIGHT.
The OTHER VEHICLE was in the lane ONLY TURNING RIGHT and the driver turns LEFT and crashes into me.

HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?
HOW CAN OUTSURANCE ALLOW THIS BEHAVIOUR AND ACT OF THEIR CLIENTS AND FIND THAT TO BE CORRECT DRIVING PROCEDURE?

I need answers and my Claim to be paid.
