As to legal precedent, you need to be watchful about what they try to use. My own solicitor sent me case copies of why she thought I would only get 50/50 at best, and I was able to shoot each one down as not applicable in my case. I ended up with 70/30 in my favour, and the argument of undue care was a substantial part of my case. Sometimes, if a driver knows they were wrong, they'll bottle it at the last minute, too.
