Will I Be Taken Advantage of If I Don't Personally Attend the Damage Assessment?

After an insurance incident occurs, the insurance company will dispatch specialized personnel to inspect, assess damages, and process claims. Following an accident, the vehicle owner should promptly report the incident to the insurance company and protect the scene without leaving. The surveyor will arrive at the scene to take photographs and determine the extent of the damage. Additional Information: Damage Assessment Considerations: 1. Vehicle insurance damage assessment is typically handled by surveyors from the local insurance company. Surveyors need to determine liability based on the traces at the accident scene, so it is crucial for the vehicle owner to protect the scene immediately after the accident. If the owner is concerned about traffic congestion or must move the vehicle due to special circumstances, they should still document the scene, such as by taking photographs of the accident site. 2. This ensures that the owner has evidence for the claim and avoids causing traffic congestion. Many vehicle owners fail to adequately protect the accident scene, leading to disputes with insurance surveyors due to a lack of claim evidence and ultimately failing to receive the maximum compensation.
