1. Contact the Authorities:

   • In case of an accident, immediately contact the local authorities, such as the police, and file a report. This is crucial for documenting the incident.

2. Ensure Safety:

   • Prioritize safety and seek medical attention if needed. Make sure everyone involved in the accident is safe.

3. Exchange Information:

   • Exchange contact and insurance information with the other parties involved in the accident. Collect details such as names, addresses, phone numbers, vehicle information, and insurance policy details.

4. Gather Evidence:

   • Take pictures of the accident scene, including the vehicles involved, damages, and any relevant road signs or signals. This evidence can be valuable during the claims process.

5. Notify Your Insurance Provider:

   • Contact your insurance company as soon as possible to report the incident. Provide them with all the necessary details, including the date, time, and location of the accident, as well as information about the other parties involved.

6. File a Claim:

   • Your insurance company will guide you through the process of filing a claim. This may involve completing a claim form and providing supporting documents such as the police report, photos, and any other relevant information.

7. Assessment by Insurance Adjuster:

   • An insurance adjuster will be assigned to assess the damages and determine the extent of coverage. They may contact you to gather more information or to inspect the damages in person.

8. Repairs or Compensation:

   • Once the assessment is complete, your insurance company will either arrange for repairs to be done on your vehicle or provide compensation, depending on your coverage and the circumstances of the incident.

9. Deductible Payment:

   • If you have a deductible (the amount you’re responsible for paying before the insurance coverage kicks in), you may need to pay that amount before the insurance company covers the remaining costs.

10. Follow-up:

    • Stay in communication with your insurance company throughout the process. Ask about the status of your claim and clarify any doubts or concerns you may have.
