Getting into an accident can be a stressful and overwhelming experience. Whether it’s a minor fender-bender or a more serious collision, knowing what steps to take immediately after can make a big difference in ensuring your safety and protecting your vehicle. At Class Auto Center, we are here to help you every step of the way, from the accident scene to a fully restored vehicle.
Step 1: Check for Injuries & Ensure Safety
First, check yourself and any passengers for injuries. If anyone is hurt, call 911 immediately.
If it’s safe, move your vehicle to the side of the road to prevent further accidents. Turn on your hazard lights.
Stay calm and avoid discussing fault with other drivers involved.
Step 2: Call the Authorities
Even for minor accidents, it’s important to call the police to document the incident properly.
The officer will provide an official accident report, which can be crucial for insurance claims and repairs.
Step 3: Document the Scene
Take clear photos of the damage to all vehicles involved, the surrounding area, and any road signs or traffic signals.
Exchange insurance and contact information with the other driver or drivers.
If there are any witnesses, collect their names and phone numbers in case further statements are needed.
Step 4: Notify Your Insurance Company
Report the accident to your insurance provider as soon as possible.
Provide them with all necessary details, including the police report, photos, and witness information.
If your car needs repairs, ask if they have a preferred collision repair shop, but remember that you have the right to choose where your vehicle is repaired.
