Car accidents are just that…an unplanned and unfortunate event that usually results in property damage and injury.   

Even though accidents are unexpected you should be prepared for one with a few simple steps. 

• Have the right coverage – do you carry state minimum limits on your Massachusetts car insurance?  The cost of medical bills are very high these days and 20/40 limits just aren't enough.
• Do you have coverage to repair your own vehicle?
• Do you have rental reimbursement in case your car isn’t drivable? 

Here are some reminders of what to do immediately after an accident: 

• Move to a safe location
• Check for injuries and call the police.
• Exchange information with other driver.  Make sure to get name, address, phone, plate number and insurance company from them.
• Contact your agent.  We are here to help!
