Guide to Handling an Auto Accident
Car accidents can occur in an instant, with around 6.4 million incidents happening each year according to Car-Accidents.net. While such events can be overwhelming, knowing how to respond can ease the stress and confusion. Here are some essential tips from the service experts at Chrysler, Jeep, and Dodge on managing the aftermath of a car accident:
Stay in Your Vehicle
After a collision, you might feel the urge to exit your vehicle to inspect the damage or talk to others involved. However, it's safer to remain inside and call the police. Staying in your car protects you both physically and legally until authorities arrive to assess the scene.
Use a Disposable Camera
Even though the police will document the accident, it's wise to take your own photos for personal records. Keeping a disposable camera in your car can be handy for this purpose.
Contact a Towing Service
Once the police are notified, arrange for towing if needed. Know which company is towing your vehicle and where it will go. It's helpful to carry a business card in your wallet with contact information for several tow-truck companies and your dealership's service department.
Notify Your Insurance Company
Many people delay contacting their insurance company, but making the call from the scene can expedite your claim. You'll be able to provide accurate information while it's fresh in your mind.
Obtain Damage Estimates
Insurance companies typically require just one estimate for vehicle damage, but obtaining multiple estimates can be beneficial. Compare these carefully to understand your costs and what will be covered. Don’t hesitate to ask questions?"reputable repair shops will be more than willing to explain necessary repairs.
By following these steps, you can navigate the challenges of a car accident with more confidence and control.
