Apparently Doris is taking me to Small Claims court and I'm named in a civil case.... But she wants me to send her my name, and address along with photos and confirmations.

Block her phone number too

I would report to the police as harassment so their is an early record of her antics. I would ignore any contact & certainly not enter into any dialogue with her.

As above log something with the police using the on-line portal your force may have - it's easier than waiting on the end of a phone and it does get looked at. She'll likely get in bother especially near a school. You could reply that you've contacted the police with all the details and her parking etc. The damage (if you actually did any) would not have been an issue if she had not blocked the pavement.

Even assuming you complied, how are they going to prove it was you?, are you the only pedestrian who walked along that section of footpath whilst the car was parked there?

Exactly, what proof. Unless it was a Tesla with 360 degree recording, but the primary thing is the driver was blocking a route into school - will be seen very dimly by the local plod. We had loads of issues at our local primary with idiots insisting they drive up a cul-de sac where none of the residents even had driveways.

Like others have put I'd be reporting this to the school Head Teacher as harassment by a parent and to the police as harassment, providing the evidence of her poor parking if required.

And I'd be making sure I didn't respond. Personally I wouldn't block the number as it may have a record of further contact from her.

I won't be troubling the police yet, she can waffle on to herself in my trash folder.

I don't think she's twigged that I'm insured, their advice is to ignore and await particulars of a claim, then they'll respond should it come to that.

I'm content to let them sort it if it comes to that after all that's what I pay them for.

Apparently she was sat in the car, I (80kg pedestrian) walking parallel to the car struck it (2700kg of "car") with such force that it caused it to move. She's failed to explain how she's identified me, how the damage has been caused, any evidence of the damage, how she knows it was not there previously and so on...

Essentially she's stamping her feet and saying it was me and I did it 'cos she said so.

I get the impression she is someone used to getting her own way and not used to being told no.

In all honesty if I had hit it I'd sort it (or Tesco would), but I didnt. I've said if she's has dash cam etc I'll consider it and go from there but no dash cam has materialised.

Just say that you'll pay, but need you her debit card details and CVC number to make the payment

Then go shopping for touch up paint

Think her name maybe Karen rather than Doris.
Would still drop a note to the head teacher, just as a marker.
Has she parked there again? Opportunity knocks. swidt

I'd wait until it's dark and go and sheet on his bonnet.

And then smear some of it under the door handles.
