What to Do When Your Parked Car Gets Scratched by Someone Else?
1 Answers
Here are the solutions for when your parked car gets scratched by someone else: 1. Report to the police immediately The car owner should call the police immediately, and the traffic police will try to find the responsible party. At the same time, the owner should take comprehensive photos of the accident scene, including the location of the accident, the full view of the vehicle with a clear license plate, and specific details of the damaged areas. If the traffic police find the responsible party, it's straightforward—the other party will compensate. If the traffic police cannot find the responsible party, they should issue an "accident liability determination form," stating that the responsible party fled the scene. Then, the car owner can file a claim with their own insurance company. 2. Provide complete documentation and submit the claim documents promptly After reporting to the police, the car owner should provide the insurance company with complete proofs or documents. After the accident is resolved, the claim documents should be submitted within the specified time frame.
