| Automobile Loss - What to Do?
1. Call the police.
2.
Don't discuss who is to blame. Just do
your best to note the accident details,
such as date, time, location and the
name, driver's license and plate numbers
of the drivers
3. If your vehicle is not
driveable, make the necessary
arrangements to have it towed to the
nearest garage in the area that has a
safe compound.
4. Don't be persuaded to
sign work orders for repair shops you are
not familiar with. Wait until you have
spoken to our adjusters.
5. Contact our
office or your agent. Our in-house claims
adjuster will be assigned at the earliest
opportunity. A prompt and fair loss
adjustment is easier when the damages are
seen before repairs begin.
6. Information that you
should have available for an automobile
loss:
- Name, address,
telephone number, insurance
company and policy number of all
parties involved
- Name, badge number
and police force of investigating
officer(s), if reported to police
- Address and
telephone number of any witnesses
- Address and
telephone number of the location
of your vehicle, if towed.
