Collision Repair Specialists

Accidents happen when you least expect them, and knowing what to do immediately after can make a significant difference in the outcome. At Certified Collision Works, we care about your safety and want to ensure you are well-prepared. Follow these steps to handle the situation efficiently and effectively:

• Stay Calm: Take a deep breath and stay as calm as possible. Panic can make the situation worse.
• Check for Injuries: Assess yourself and your passengers for any injuries. If anyone is hurt, call 911 immediately.

• Move to Safety: If the vehicles are causing a hazard, move them to the side of the road if possible. Turn on your hazard lights to warn other drivers.
• Stay Inside: If it’s unsafe to exit the vehicle, stay inside with your seatbelt fastened until help arrives.

• Report the Accident: Whether it’s a minor fender bender or a major collision, it’s crucial to report the accident to the police. They will document the scene and create an official report.
• Provide Necessary Information: When the police arrive, provide accurate information about the accident. Avoid admitting fault or blaming others at the scene.

• Driver Details: Exchange names, addresses, phone numbers, driver’s license numbers, and insurance information with all involved parties.
• Vehicle Information: Note the make, model, year, and license plate number of the vehicles involved.

• Take Photos: Use your smartphone to take pictures of the damage to all vehicles, the accident scene, and any visible injuries.
• Write Notes: Document the time, date, location, weather conditions, and any other relevant details.

• Report the Incident: Contact your insurance company as soon as possible to report the accident. Provide them with all the details and documentation.
• Understand Your Coverage: Discuss your coverage options and the next steps in the claims process with your insurance agent.

• Visit a Doctor: Even if you feel fine, it’s advisable to see a doctor after an accident. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent.
