It depends on the laws in your jurisdiction. In Manitoba you have 2 years to put in a claim, as long as nobody was injured, but a person would be crazy to wait that long. Damage is hard to properly estimate after 2 years of the elements, and memory becomes unreliable. You don't say what kind of damage, but if the "old guy" has a little damage to his vehicle, and is putting in a claim, you could check to see what it would cost to just buy it out.

A claim can be filed within 1 year of the accident.

After 3 months.
Insurers don't accept claims more than 90 days after the incident occurred.
(If the chap does make a fuss, it may work out cheaper for you to pay for his repairs directly and keep an unblemished record with your insurers.)

I had bump before xmas. (Not my fault though.) My insurance company said they can't follow up on the claim unless i take action within 3 months of the accident.

it should state on your insurance policy.
normally it should be reported in a number of days then the any claims arising from the incident must be provided and notified by 3 years.

about 2 years i believe. but if you think he may try to claim report it anyway. after so long if no claim is made then they will let you know.
