Car accidents can be stressful, but staying calm and knowing what to do can make a big difference. At Trinity Car Centre, we recommend these five steps to handle the situation safely and efficiently:

1. Ensure Safety First: Move yourself and passengers to a safe location if possible. Turn on hazard lights and check for any injuries. Call emergency services immediately if anyone is hurt.

2. Inform the Authorities: Always report the accident to the police. A formal report helps with insurance claims and protects you legally.

3. Document Everything: Take clear photos of all vehicles, license plates, damages, and the surrounding area. Note down contact information of witnesses if available.

4. Exchange Details: Share names, phone numbers, and insurance information with the other driver(s). Do not admit fault at the scene—it can be addressed later.

5. Get Professional Vehicle Assistance: Take your car to a trusted service center like Trinity Car Centre. Our experts carefully inspect and repair your vehicle, ensuring it is safe and road-ready.
