No one expects to be involved in a car accident but unfortunately, accidents happen and it’s important to know what to do if you’re caught up in one. The heart rate increases and things become a blur. The first and most important thing to do is to Stop the car as soon as possible
No matter how small the accident is, you must stop. In fact, failing to do so is an offence under the Road Traffic Act. You can be sentenced to prison.
You should make sure your car’s engine is switched off and then turn your hazard lights on. Check for injuries to yourself and passengers.
Take photos or video of the scene including the number plates. Try to remain as calm as possible - its normal to be shaken after an accident. Don’t lose your temper but at the same time, even if you know it your fault, NEVER EVER, admit liability, it could invalidate your insurance.
The UK law say that you must give your name and contact details to any involved involved in the accident. However, try and collect as much information as possible including witness details. If you suspect the the other party is under the influence of drink, drugs or you believe they’ve deliberately caused the accident, you should call the Police. You should also call the Police if there are any injuries or the road is blocked.
In minor incidents, you may choose to repair the car privately. Sometimes, there may be hidden damage which you can not see. If you decide to handle things privately, you should still inform your insurance company. Mark the application as “for information only”. Sometimes, people will make a claim against months after the incident.
A few years ago, I had an accident which involved no damage at all. We agreed that to call it quits and not to claim on the insurance. However, 6 months later the passenger in the other car claimed for personal injury.
