Hi, a few months I was clipped from behind while stationary at a roundabout. (Waiting to turn left). The other drivers continued straight on without stopping. This caused bumper damage and a popped out parking sensor which bleeps continuously in reverse (repair cost approx 1k) I managed to capture his reg with a high degree of certainty. I reported it it to the police- apparently they have been making occasional checks at his/ her address without successfully interviewing him. Going through my insurance I was able to find his insurance provider. They have made some token efforts to contact the policy holder however he appears to be stonewalling them. I'm trying to get the DVLA to release his/her information so I can contact the other party directly (no vigilante action planned I would just like to ask them to engage with the insurance company and understand why they didn't do the right thing and stop). I received a reply to a v888 form submission.

'I can’t deal with your enquiry for the following reason(s):

• Please clarify further how the information will be used if released i.e. how will you

contact the keeper if released.

If you still want the information, please return your correspondence with this additional

information.'

Does any one know of a reason which will be accepted by the DVLA?

Thanks in advance for any help. Scott
