Auto Insurance Claims San Francisco CA

Reader’s Question:

If you are in an accident and no one calls the law enforcement officer and you just exchange information with the other driver what happens if they later come back and say they have damage in their car that they did not? I have my car insurance in San Francisco California.

All accidents or incidents should be reported to your insurance providers even if the law enforcement officer are not called. In this way, they have a record of your side of what happened. This also protects you from accidents such as the one you stated wherein the information later changes.

You should contact your insurance carrier in San Francisco CA, if you haven’t already, and explain to your insurance agent what happened. At this point, it will be up to a claims adjuster to know whether or not a claim can be made against your car insurance policy. The same applies for the other driver.
