Full transcript
Thanks for coming in today, Mr de Boer. Can you walk me through exactly what happened at the Bunnings car park last Thursday evening, please?
Ik parkeerde mijn auto rond kwart voor zes bij de Bunnings toen ineens een andere wagen achteruitreed en tegen mijn portier aanreed, en meteen wegreed zonder te stoppen.
Did you get a good look at the vehicle - its colour, make, or model, or perhaps part of the number plate?
Het was een donkerblauwe SUV, maar ik kon het kenteken niet volledig zien - alleen de eerste drie letters, C-Y-K.
Were you or anyone else injured in the collision, and roughly how much damage did the impact cause to your car?
Niemand raakte gewond, maar het portier is flink gedeukt en de reparatie kost waarschijnlijk meer dan achthonderd dollar.
I'll log this as a hit-and-run incident. Are you able to attend Dubbo Police Station on Monday morning to sign a written statement?
Ja, dat kan ik doen, al werk ik tot half vier, dus ik kom liever na vier uur langs op het station.
That's fine, thank you for explaining. I'll also give you an event number now so you can report this to your insurance company.
Dank u wel. Moet ik dat nummer ook doorgeven aan de garage voor de schatting van de schade?
Yes, please provide that number to both your insurer and the repair garage today. If we identify the driver, we will contact you directly.
Begrepen, dank u voor uw hulp vandaag. Ik hoop dat de bestuurder snel gevonden wordt.
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.

Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
