Returning from an errand to discover your vehicle has been hit can ruin your day. Follow the advice we've provided here to know what to do next. When your vehicle needs body repair following an accident in Reseda, call Carbon Collision Center to get the job done.

Call the Police
Inform the police of what happened first. Ensure them that you are aware of the circumstances and that the other driver is not present. To file a report, police may visit the accident scene. When you make a claim to your insurance provider, you will need a copy of that report.

Contact Who Hit You
Call the other driver right away if they left a note with their phone number. Learn what happened and what is covered by their insurance. Give the police and your own insurance provider the information if they only left a note with their contact info. You must make a claim with your own insurance company for all losses if they didn't leave a note.

Get Evidence
Take pictures to capture the damage by inspecting your vehicle from every angle. In order to indicate where the car is with respect to the parking space or street you are currently in, take pictures from both a close-up and a wide-angle perspective. Write down everything you observe, including the degree of the damage, how you first observed it, and the time of day you think the incident occurred. Talk to anyone who witnessed the crash and gather their contact information so they can give important information to your insurance company later.

Schedule Repairs
Call your insurance company as soon as possible and let them know about the accident. You can recount the events more clearly if you report this as soon as you can. Be careful not to put off auto maintenance for too long. The area can rust and deteriorate if the damage is not repaired.
