Accident Management Frequently Asked Questions

After a car accident, prioritise everyone's safety by moving to a safe location, if possible. Call emergency services if necessary. Exchange insurance and contact information with the other party involved. Gather evidence, such as photos of the accident scene and damages. Report the incident to the police if required. Call Lookers DriveAssist 03332 075 799 and we will guide you through the claims process.

Whilst guiding you through, the sometimes-complicated claims process, our Lookers DriveAssist team will advise it is general practice to inform your insurance company of an accident and in many cases will be for information purposes only.

Making a claim for an accident that wasn't your fault typically should not lead to an increase in your insurance premium. However, insurance premiums are influenced by various factors, and there may be exceptions. It's essential to review your policy terms and conditions or contact your insurance provider to understand the specifics of your coverage.

The time it takes to settle an insurance claim after a car accident can vary. It depends on factors such as the complexity of the claim, the extent of damages, the cooperation between parties involved, and the efficiency of the insurance company. In some cases, simple claims can be resolved within weeks, while more complex cases may take longer. It's best to contact your insurance provider for an estimate of the claim processing time.

Yes! It’s a common misconception that your car insurer has to authorise which repair centre your car is sent to after an accident, however you actually have a legal right to choose who repairs your car.

You’re protected by the Motor Vehicle Block Exemption Regulation, enabling you to choose your own repairer if you wish to.
