Six Steps to take AFTER A CAR ACCIDENT!

Six Steps to take after a Car Accident

Taking the time now to plan what to do if you are in an auto accident can help get you back on the road faster. Doing a few things at the scene of an accident can help you avoid costly and time-consuming mistakes. Here are several useful tips from the experts at West Loop Auto Body in Chicago that you should remember if you're in an accident. You may even want to keep these tips in your vehicle's glove compartment.

1. STAY SAFE! Make sure your car and any other vehicles are as far off the roadway as possible. Warn oncoming traffic by activating your hazard warning lights.

2. CALL THE POLICE! Call 911 to report the accident. Even if you just had a fender bender, call the police so they can document who was involved; they'll decide whether an accident report is necessary.

3. TAKE PICTURES OF THE ACCIDENT SCENE! With technology today you can take pictures of the scene of accident with your picture phone. Make sure you get pictures of all damage that happen as a result of the accident. Get pictures of all vehicles involved including license plate number.

4. CONTACT YOUR INSURANCE AND REPORT THE CLAIM! The sooner your insurance company knows about the accident, the sooner it can start working to resolve your claim.

5. STICK TO THE FACTS! Discuss the accident only with the police and your insurance company. Be honest and factual! Avoid guessing or speculating on times, distances or speeds if you're unsure.

6. EXCHANGE VITAL INFORMATION WITH THE OTHER DRIVER! Write down the name, address, phone number and license numbers of all drivers and witnesses. Ask each for the name of his or her insurer and policy number. Your insurer might need to speak with them to determine who's at fault for the accident. Your insurance company will want to know if the police responded or if anyone was injured. Also, get details about the other cars involved, taking note of whether the cars were damaged and if so, where the damage occurred.

7. CONSIDER ALL YOUR REPAIR OPTIONS! Once you've figured out all of the details at the scene, you'll need to consider your next steps. With West Loop Auto Body you can choose the most convenient way to have your claim handled. Our A+ rating with the BBB gives you assurance that we will care for your every need.

Winter Emergency Car Kit

Even though the weather is warming up a little there is no telling how long it will stick around. You want to make sure you don't get stuck if and when the weather does change back to being cold and frozen. For that reason we wanted to go over some items that should definitely be included in your winter car emergency kit.

• Jumper Cables, this really is something you should always have in your car, but there are few things as frustrating as being stranded with a dead battery in freezing weather.
• Windshield Scrapper, having your vision impaired is always a problem and that danger is only increased when you add ice, snow, and bad weather.
• Gloves, Mittens, & Extra Layers,  it can be miserable to brush off or dig out your car with your hands exposed and if you are going to be stuck somewhere for extended periods you will certainly enjoy having an extra coat or blanket to bundle up with.
• Flashlight, Flares, & Other Lights, blanket if you happen to get stuck while the sun is down the flashlight will not only help you findand correct problems with your car, but it's will helpother drives can see you as well
