MOTOR ACCIDENT CLAIMS

  • If your car cannot be driven arrange for it to be towed to a place of safety, but ENSURE the tow truck operator is either AA or SAMBRA approved.
  • Never admit liability, no matter how “guilty” you may feel – merely advise the third party “I will report the claim to my Insurers who will handle the matter on my behalf”.
  • Try and obtain contact details for any witnesses who were not in any of the vehicles involved in the collision.
  • Write down as much detail regarding the third party as you can eg, name, ID number, address, phone numbers, car registration numbers etc – the more information you are able to provide Insurers, the stronger the possibility of recovery.
  • If your vehicle can be driven, obtain a quote from a panel beater who is a SAMBRA member. If you do not know of any, contact us and we’ll supply you with names of a few in your area.
  • A copy of the driver’s licence must accompany the claim form.
