3 vehicle collision: not at fault
- Thread starter iFly55
- Start date
Nothing, unless you are later on subpoena'ed as a witness. You weren't involved in the collision so there is no insurance claim, and you weren't charged with anything so there is nothing to worry about in that regard.
It's possible that at some later date, that your presence may be subpoena'ed in court as a witness to the collision, if someone takes their charge to court. If that happens, just be at the court at the time and date that they tell you to be there, do what the court tells you to do, and answer the questions that you are asked.

You may get a fire department bill in the mail, or your insurance company might get one without your knowledge.
It depends on a number of factors, but don't bet against them asking you to pay for some or all of the fire dept service, regardless of whether or not they appeared to do anything.

FYI, fault isn't determined by the police, but rather by the insurance companies by following the FSCO's Fault Determination Rules:

Oh god another one of these fire department posts....
Wonder when Infernobuster is coming in...
So you were at the back of the pack and avoided the collision? Doesn't sound like you were involved at all so I'd move on with life accordingly.
If you successfully swerved around vehicle B then that crack in your plate frame must've already been there. But it sounds like you're somehow unsure if you made contact with vehicle B?

Fire dept billing is a big issue with the Insurance Bureau of Canada these days, and for good reason.
Plantinum Cycle. You are saying you could and most likely will incurr the cost of calling the fire department ambulance etc. for a car or whatever accident. Boy, next time I will just walk away and say my phone has a dead battery in it and let someone else take the cost of the fire department. That could cost hundreds of dollars in cost. Nothing like driving away the help. I am not blaming the insurance industry on this one. If i did call, I would not give them my name or any infor. They might be able to trace my cell phone number and nail me that way, but best to take option one.
