What To Do When You Have an Accident
A car accident can be a stressful and disorienting experience. Knowing what to do in advance can help you navigate the situation with more confidence.
Step 1 — Safety and Wellbeing
Your first priority is always safety. Make sure you and anyone involved are safe and well. Call 000 immediately if someone is injured, there is ongoing danger, or another driver has left the scene.
Step 2 — Take Photos
Take as many photos as possible — all damage to all vehicles, number plates, street signs, and any marks on the road. This documentation is important when reporting to your insurance company.
Step 3 — Gather Information
Collect the full name, contact number, driver's licence number, vehicle registration, and insurance details from all other drivers. If there are witnesses, get their contact details too.
Step 4 — Contact Your Insurance Company
Call your insurance company within 24 hours of the accident. Miranda Auto Body can assist you with the claims process — call us on (02) 9525 8673.
