If you or a friend gets involved in a car accident taking the right steps can help the situation not get worse and help you payout for an insurance claim without a hitch
They seem simple but not as straight forward as is:
- Do not move or run off after any car mishap
A definite No! if you want a claim, running a way most of the time signifies you were on the wrong, there is no reason to if you are right. - Call the police/Inform the nearest police
This forms part of incident reporting and claims when it comes to the insurer - Exchange information, with the other party
Full Names, ID, DL Number, Telephone Number, Vehicle Registration and and Ownership details if possible - Document the incident,
With the smartphones and chat applications, photographic evidence plays a vital role - Contact your insurer/broker
Your insurer should be in the loop at all times on the developments - Settlement of your insurance claim
Now that you kept your insurer informed, it should be a tad better explaining to them with the documented evidence and making the claim
