Hello everyone! I need some advice on my case. Thank you in advance for reading!

Â
Long story short, while I exit a 4-way junction, I didn't see properly a car coming in the main road, so that person banged me at the right front door, while that person's car has a very indented front. I have agree for them to claim my insurance, however, the person's friend came to me: "Can you say you lose control of your car and hit the side of the road? Cause my friend's Roadtax EXPIRED"

. I told that person that I'm going to make a police report (the truth, not the lose control thingy), so anything meet there. They kinda agree to it, but then I didn't saw them showed up. Well for me to secure myself by the law, I made my report within 24 hours, paid my saman, and the Sarjan told me that the rest will be handled by the police, don't worry about anything else.
So now almost 2 months has passed, the person messaged me to pay for their repair fee (Well over a thousand). But according to the law, they should be claiming my insurance, and not me paying them in cash. I did reminded them to do the claim.
So now I have several questions on my case:
1. In the eye of the law. who is actually at fault? (Me exit from the small road that causes the accident, or not having a valid roadtax?)
2. Its over 2 months now, can they still claim? If they can't and come back to me, should I pay? (I'm a student and financial is a big issue for me)
3. If they continuously harass me, what should I do?
P/S: I am a P-License holder, and that person is too, although they didn't put up the P-sign on their car.
It's weird that they asked you to lodge a report like that because if you did, then they wouldn't be able to claim from your insurance since technically, they were not involved in the accident. So you did the right thing in lodging a truthful police report.
You shouldn't pay them a single cent. You have your insurance for that. Just tell them to claim from your insurance and thereafter ignore their calls. Try to limit your communication with them to as little as possible or to none at all. You have done your duty by lodging a report and informing them who your insurers are. I think they are of the impression that not having a road tax (or quite possibly no insurance as well!) denies them the right to claim. They actually still can claim against your insurance even if they have no road tax or no insurance even. So maybe tell them that the next time they call. Then tell them to stop calling you.
Answers to your question:
1. If you came out from a junction to join the main road then you are at fault in the accident. Not having a road tax is a separate issue.
2. Yes they can still claim. They have 6 years to do it.
3. Lodge a police report if things get ugly or out of hand.
By the way, are you claiming against your insurer for your car's damages? You should since your ncd will be forfeited anyways. So claim... If the cost of repairs exceeds 400 that is
