What is the process for repairing a car after a traffic accident?

[Gwen]

Here is the process for repairing a car after a traffic accident: 1. After a traffic accident occurs, the two parties involved can negotiate the vehicle repair issues, select a repair shop, proceed with the repairs, and obtain a repair order and invoice. If an agreement cannot be reached, either party can file a lawsuit for compensation. Alternatively, they can proceed with the repairs first and then claim rights based on the invoice and repair order, or directly apply to a certification agency to assess the vehicle repair costs. 2. After setting up warning signs, the responsibilities of both parties in the accident should be preliminarily determined. 3. Take photos for evidence. The photos should include a panoramic shot showing the accident location, several close-up shots of the contact parts of the vehicles, and a photo illustrating the accident scene (including skid marks on the road, road signs, etc.). It is also advisable to take a photo of the driver(s) with the vehicle(s). This not only provides evidence for the insurance company but also prevents the other party from denying fault after moving the vehicle. 4. After taking photos, check the other party's driver's license and vehicle documents, which include: license plate, annual inspection, vehicle registration, and compulsory traffic insurance. Only after verifying this information can the vehicles be moved to a location that does not obstruct traffic, with hazard lights still on and safety warning signs set up. Both parties can then call their respective insurance companies to report the accident time, location, and damage. After processing the report, the insurance company will provide a claim number, and the parties can then fill out the "Traffic Accident Quick Settlement Agreement."
