The Peugeot is still there; 'parked', I suppose but not tidily and too close to the junction. I would still have expected the police to have required it to be removed. The Met website says they will remove vehicles themselves only if the accident was 'fatal or life-altering', which clearly this one wasn't, but I'm surprised a badly damaged vehicle, which may have broken brake or fuel lines and be leaking hazardous fluids, is allowed to remain in a public place.

More likely to be a council thing I would think and would need to be a local resident to get them to move it. I guess the car was insured 3rd party if it's still there

Is it a new-ish Peugeot likely to be worth a few quid or a piece of worthless tat?

In between - although tending to the tat end of the scale. I've rather lost track of small Peugeots but it's a 20-something ... 8? 2010ish, perhaps. Doubt it was worth a fortune last week; certainly isn't now.

I witnessed an accident on the M8 where a foreign registered car pulled moved lane into the side of a van causing damage to both. I pulled up on the hard shoulder beside them and gave the van driver my business card. less than a week later I received a phone call, then a follow up email from his ins company. I did a sketch , scanned it into pdf and sent it over to them and received a thank you in return!
Was 100% the foreign drivers fault, was an Italian registered People carrier, full with a family and the whole side was smashed up, lights front and back, mirror etc. Remember feeling sorry for them, were obviously here on holiday and it had just been ruined.
