Reviewer Update
Still not happy I have talked to Lancelot the advisor
And talked to Mmeli mnguni today and they are talking the some language

Wat they are doing it’s not write because even the law enforcement officers that where the on the accident they say that is negligence from the driver that’s why he went and remove that tyre when the officers where there but Outsurance team say I could have seen that tyre because my lights where on

Good day Thapelo,

Further to our private reply and your post response, we understand that the feedback provided is disappointing.

A driver needs to keep a look out of their immediate vicinity as it is not uncommon to find objects lying on the road. This would also apply to dogs and pedestrians that could suddenly cross the road. Due to safety reasons, our client was not able to remove the Tyre off the road and had to wait for assistance. 

Mmeli has provided you with detailed feedback regarding our decision and unfortunately our decision remains unchanged.

Regards,
The OUTsurance team
