IF YOU HAVE AN AUTO ACCIDENT 1.
DO NOT ADMIT FAULT - this could affect your insurance coverage.
2. If there is SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, call the insurance
carrier 24-hour claim number as soon as possible.
3. Call local police if there is serious injury or death,
or a significant amount of damage to vehicles. Police will
rarely come to "fender bender" incidents (less than
$1,000 damage.)
4. Get driver information from other driver:
- Name
- Driver's License Number
- Address
- Phone Number
5. Get insurance information on other car (should be with
vehicle):
- Name insured
- Insurance carrier
- Policy Number
- Agent Phone Number
6. Take appropriate steps to prevent further loss. Have your
car taken to a dealership or auto body repair shop. Take personal
belongings out of car.
7. If possible, take pictures.
