What to do if you have an accident

If you are involved in an accident, here's some important information you should know about which will help you when you come to make your claim.

• Do not drive away - always stop and assess the damage
• Get the names and contact details of any drivers, passengers or pedestrians involved and any witnesses
• Ask the other drivers involved for their insurance company and policy numbers - they are obliged to supply these under the Road Traffic Act
• Check how many people are in the other vehicles involved and are there any injuries
• Call the police if anyone is hurt or the other driver leaves without giving their details
• Make a quick diagram of the accident scene - this will help your claim
• Have your Certificate of Motor Insurance ready
• Never admit blame or liability. Tell us if other people involved accept liability
• If your car is not driveable after the accident, call our 24-hour accident recovery helpline on 0800 519 5195
• Report the accident to our insurance claims hotline: 0845 608 6038
