What To Do In The Event Of An Accident

4 Record All The Facts

Record all the facts of the accident as soon as possible, regardless of how trivial they may seem at the time. Minor details may help prove your case. Make a rough sketch of the scene showing positions of the vehicles involved both prior to and after the incident. Include road signs and width, road markings, skid marks, obstructions and where exactly the accident happened. Make a note of the weather, road conditions and visibility. If you have a camera take photographs of the accident scene, any of the damage to the other vehicle and its occupants.

5 What To Do Next?

If your car is un-roadworthy contact us and we will arrange for collection of your vehicle. If your car is roadworthy bring it in to Sinclair Paint & Body Shop at your earliest convenience. An estimate will be provided and if you wish we will then obtain insurance authorisation on your behalf.

Don’t Forget

It is important to obtain the details of any other drivers or witnesses involved in an accident for insurance purposes and for reference if the police are involved. Also, remember to contact us as soon as possible.
