Accident Management FAQ’s
What should I do if I have an accident
It’s not a nice thought, but car accidents happen and it’s important to know what to do if you’re caught up in one. When you have an accident, first of all you should go to a safe place. For example side of the road or the footpath. If somebody is injured, you should call an ambulance or try to get medical help. Try to take photos of the accident showing damage, registration numbers and location. If you have dash cam footage, that is also very helpful. You should ask the other party(s) name(s), address(es), insurance details, make, model and registration of the vehicles involved.
What do I do if the accident is not my fault
If you are involved in an accident that was not your fault, our expert claims handlers can take care of everything for you. Whilst we will endeavour to make your claim against the fault insurer, it may be better in certain circumstances to utilise your own insurance policy. Our claims handlers are insurance trained and qualified to give you the best advice tailored to your individual claim.
