Securing Car Insurance After An Accident

Guest post by: John Clark

Article Overview: After the accident has been handled, you should gather the insurance information of all of the other drivers that are involved. This is especially the case if the cause of the accident was the other driver's fault. This will keep you from having to pay a deductible if you need repairs to your car. In addition, it will help you avoid paying higher insurance costs. This is because the other driver's insurance provider will pay for the claim.

Securing Car Insurance After An Accident

After the accident has been handled, you should gather the insurance information of all of the other drivers that are involved. This is especially the case if the cause of the accident was the other driver's fault. This will keep you from having to pay a deductible if you need repairs to your car. In addition, it will help you avoid paying higher insurance costs. This is because the other driver's insurance provider will pay for the claim. Take Pictures

Take pictures of all of the damage immediately after the accident. Even though the insurance representative will take pictures, he or she may not be there immediately after the accident. It is important for your photos to show the position of the cars and the environment that is surrounding the damaged cars. This will help you tell the story of what happen. Pictures say one thousand words and it helps if you have visual proof.

Call a Representative

After you have taken the photos, you should contact your claims representative. This should be done at the scene of the accident if everyone is willing to wait and cooperate. Your claims representative will fill out the claims form, take pictures, and get the story straight. He or she may also interview any witnesses who still may be there.

Wait for Compensation

All you need to do now is wait for your check to arrive. This may take weeks or even months. If this is the case, you may want to take care of the repairs instead of wait. When you get your check, it will probably be the lowest estimated repair cost. This should only be the case if your car was completely totaled. You should have nothing to worry about if there were no major damages done to your car. If you can afford it, there should be no reason for you to wait until you get your check.

secure my connection - I agree with Link's second post. Security is a personal sticky issue and possibly not the first service you should introduce yourself at the door. I'd suggest also the Back to School "In-Home" Computer tuneup (it's such a pain to take your computer in for servicing) and promise that they would see a smoother and faster computer. You can hand them a 2 page report on the benefits of having a computer tuneup -> this is critical. After you are gone this is the only piece of information that they will have to begin trusting you and want to have you in their home. You can sneak at the bottom of the report the benefits of having a wireless connection and the importance of Securing it. finish off the report with two dotted rounded rectangle boxes beside each other. One has a free Computer tune up assessment and the other a free wireless network security test. If they take you up on either you can test for the other. You now have two sources of possible income.
