Hello,
This complaint is about the driver who intentionally hit my car on Sunday 9th November at 11:30pm. This incident happened at the entrance of Renaissance Hotel, Powai.
I was on my way to the hotel and I also had my indicator on showing the driver that I'm about to take a 'RIGHT' turn. I rightly took a right turn and reached the other side of the road and suddenly I feel something hit my car from the side rear. It was this BEST bus driver who on purpose swirled the bus to the right and then after hitting my car, was trying to go back to his 'STRAIGHT' lane and escape.
On confronting him as to why he had to do so, this was his reply "You did not give me way to go ahead, so I had to hit you" Hw was also abusive and was using the BEST as a tool to do so.
He also mentioned, "Is there anyone who has stopped a BEST bus'.
To me this sentence means that, even if a man is walking on the road and for some reason the driver feels that the man didn't give him side, then he can just run over him. Is this what BEST is all about.
He was also saying that when the cops come they will make sure to take care of me in a very abusive manner.
Upon asking for his name and tag #, he said he will just not give it and was very arrogant and with all pride said that "You do what you have to do"
I had to spend Rs. 9000 to fix the damages and I feel I had to spend it for someone else's mistake who has absolutely no fear of the law's.
The police were also present after the incident took place. he police officer asked me to file a police complaint. They were from Powai Station as far as I know and you can verify that too.
Today it is this driver who behaved like this and if no action is taken against him, then tomorrow we might have many more drivers with such an attitude.
There is absolutely no safety for other commuter's when such drivers are on the road to hit other vehicles on purpose and also accept the same with pride by saying that they did it on purpose.
I sincerely request the person in charge to take disciplinary actions against this driver and also I will be filing a police complaint against the driver and BEST for negligence and I'm also expect a reimbursement for the amount I spent on the damages caused by the driver. I have the bill to prove it too.
Below mentioned is the bus details;
Bus registration #: MH 01 L9998.
It was from Gorai Depot, #8762.
Time of the incident : 11:30pm Sunday 9th November 2008.
