Car accidents and insurance: build the facts before choosing a route
A road-accident matter should separate police reporting, traffic enforcement, civil liability, injury evidence and insurance handling. The Office of Insurance Commission route is relevant to insurance disputes, not every accident issue.
Questions that change the route
- • Crash location, vehicles and parties involved
- • Police or traffic records and any enforcement action
- • Injury, property damage and insurer position
- • Whether the unresolved issue is insurance handling, civil compensation or traffic enforcement
Evidence to organise
- • Photos or video of the scene and damage
- • Police or incident records
- • Medical and repair records where relevant
- • Insurance correspondence and a dated chronology
Move the issue forward carefully
- 1Preserve scene, damage and injury evidence promptly
- 2Keep insurance, traffic and civil-liability records separated
- 3Use OIC complaint channels where the dispute concerns an insurer
- 4Verify the competent court or authority for any unresolved civil or enforcement issue
