1. What to Do If You Are Involved in a Car Accident?
-Ten Time Tested Tips-

2. Are car accidents necessary?
Probably not. But since they are a fact of life in
modern Canada and since "forewarned is forearmed"
here are some tips to help you cut your losses if you
are involved in one.

3. Tip No 1
CALL THE POLICE AND REPORT THE ACCIDENT
If your car is in an accident and the person driving was rendered
physically incapable of making an accident report, then you, as the
owner of the vehicle, should make sure the accident is reported to
the police.

4. Tip No 2
EXCHANGE INFORMATION
Drivers must exchange names, addresses phone numbers and
insurance information.
Tip No 3
GATHER INFORMATION
Make a diagram of the accident, showing the positions of the
cars before, during, and after impact.

5. Tip No 4
DON'T ADMIT FAULT
Do not sign any pieces of paper. In some states you may be asked to
sign traffic tickets--but this in itself is not an admission of guilt or
wrongdoing.

6. Tip No 5
SEE A DOCTOR
If you have a head injury, you may need to see a neurologist.
Head injuries can occur even though you don't hit your head.
At the very least consult a chiropractor with respect to back
and neck injuries.

7. Tip No 6
REPORT THE ACCIDENT TO INSURANCE
COMPANIES
After the accident contact your insurance company to inform them
of the accident.
If the other driver was at fault report the accident to his insurance
company.

8. Tip No 8
HOW TO DEAL SUCCESSFULLY WITH CLAIMS
ADJUSTERS
You will likely be contacted by a claims adjustor from your own or
another parties' insurance company.
If the adjuster is not promptly providing you what, by law, you are
entitled to, ask to speak with her supervisor.

9. Tip No 9
CALL A LAWYER
You may want to talk to an attorney to clarify your rights and discuss
questions of liability for the accident.
And you might need help getting a rental car, getting all the damage
repaired on your car, or getting fair value for your car if it is totalled.

10. Tip No 10
WHAT TO DO IF YOU ARE SUED
If you are served with a complaint and summons and you have insurance
just take the complaint and summons to your insurance agent.
This would be the agent for the insurance you had at the time of the
accident.
