Your biggest problem might be that the incident happened "some time ago"as per the OP.Your dad should have informed his insurance company of the incident even if there was to be no claim.That would have covered him against every eventuality.It might also have led to a slight increase in his next premium which is why we often fail to do it.Best to be fully open about it now and hope the scroat can be proved a liar.
Incidently,you can still be liable if there is no contact between car and bike.Known as a "proximity" incident.
