Motor Insurance Claims:
The most important things to do after an accident are to stay calm think as clearly you can and follow these five steps. |
|
1. Whose at fault?
Do not admit blame at the scene of the accident; this could negate your policy. Never offer a settlement. |
|
2. Safety measures
Call 999 (or 112 from a mobile) immediately if anyone is injured or the incident has caused a hazardous situation. |
|
3. Exchange details
Exchange contact details and insurance details with the third party and with anyone who witnessed the accident. |
|
4. Take pictures
If possible, take pictures of the scene and of damage to any vehicles involved. Alternatively, draw a sketch showing the positions of the vehicles. |
|
