What to Do After a Rear-End Collision
1 Answers
Solutions for a rear-end collision are as follows: 1. Stop and inspect. Turn off the engine and turn on the hazard lights. Take photos of the accident scene with your phone, including the positions of both vehicles, the collision points, and skid marks. Also, record the other party's license plate number. 2. Negotiate a resolution. For minor collisions, you can discuss compensation matters based on the actual situation. 3. Report to the police. While reporting to the police, also notify your insurance company. If it's a minor traffic accident affecting traffic flow, you must move the vehicles to the roadside after taking photos as evidence and wait for traffic police to handle the situation. 4. Insurance claim. Once the traffic police issue an accident report and both parties sign it, you can submit the claim to the insurance company based on the police report. 5. Fast-track claim. If the accident liability is clear, even if the police have not arrived, the insurance company can process a fast-track claim as long as both parties agree on the handling of the accident without disputes.
