An auto insurance insurance accident is an un anticipated event that generally results in damage or loss to a motor vehicle.
When in an accident its important to remain level headed and move the vehicle(s) out of the way of traffic if possible. Survey any injuries that may have occured and get in touch with 911 if an ambulance is required. Next its important to make other motorists aware that there is the hazard of a damaged vehicle on the road so they can avoid hitting the automobile(s). Hazard lights should be used and other equipment if available like cones and flares to make the car more visible. Notify the police of the incident if one hasn’t already done so when calling 911. Next get the other party in the accident’s contact details if applicatable (including their policy and insurers details) and call your car insurance company. Let them know that the accident has occured and what the circumstances were. They may even be able to go to the scene which can be useful with the claims process.
