    6 Ways To Deal With Car Repairs After An Accident

    Have you been in a car accident and need to know what to do next? You’re not alone. Car accidents happen all the time, but you must take care of your vehicle even if it was someone else’s fault. In this article, we will discuss 6 ways you can deal with car repairs after an accident!

    Take Pictures Of All Damages

    If you have been involved in a car accident, the first thing to do is take pictures of all damages. The last thing that anyone wants after being hit by another driver is for them to deny that they were at fault or ask for more money than needed just because you didn’t have evidence proving otherwise. Taking photos immediately after an accident can also be helpful when you need to file a police report and/or insurance claim.

    Also, make sure to visit local body shops in your area. Get at least three quotes on the cost of repairs so you can better compare prices and the quality of workmanship offered by different auto body shops like auto body shop Saskatoon. You will likely find that there are big differences between how much it costs to have an accident repair done, depending on where you take your car for repairs.

    Good Samaritan Laws

    A Good Samaritan Law is a law designed to protect people who help others in emergencies. It’s generally used when someone gets sued for providing necessary medical care, but the injured person isn’t happy with how much (or how little) they received from their insurer.

    There are currently 42 states with some form of Good Samaritan law on their books protecting people who help others in emergencies from being sued. Unfortunately, there’s no federal protection so if you’re traveling it might be a good idea to check into what the laws are where you’re going! If this sounds like something that would happen to you, check with an attorney about putting together the right documents before anything bad happens. That way when someone tries to sue you afterward, all they’ll get is air (because you don’t have anything they can take).

    Insurance Companies

    This is true even if your accident wasn’t your fault and the other driver doesn’t have insurance! That’s right – in most states, anyone who gets injured in an automobile accident has a legal claim against at least one of the drivers involved regardless of whether they were “at fault” or not. This means that someone with no injuries could still go after any damages associated with their vehicle being damaged (i.e., diminished value) plus pain & suffering for mental anguish over having their car broken into. Of course, there are some exceptions to this rule but generally speaking, it exists because people shouldn’t be able to get away without paying anything just because they don’t have insurance.

    However, there are some exceptions to this rule as well! For example, if you were 100% at fault for the accident then you will be found “categorically” negligent and barred from collecting damages against anyone else involved in the accident (regardless of their degree of fault). This means that even though someone without insurance doesn’t pay out any money – because they didn’t cause your accident or break into your car! – it also means that they won’t get paid back by either driver’s liability coverage either. Unfortunately, these kinds of accidents can happen all too easily; especially when people try to do something stupid like drive home after having too much to drink, etc.

    Going To Court

    You don’t have to hire a lawyer but if you want to make sure you get the most out of your case, it might be worth considering.

    If this is a no-fault accident or someone has insurance then hiring an attorney isn’t going to help much because there’s nothing they can do that you can’t for yourself – unless maybe they’re very good at getting their clients better deals on cars. In those situations then some attorneys may be willing to lower their fees as well since they’ll end up making more money in the long run by keeping business coming back and referrals from happy customers! On the other hand, if this is not a no-fault car crash and/or one driver doesn’t have insurance then hiring a lawyer to get you the best deal on repairs, pain & suffering damages, and/or diminished value may be well worth it.

    Arbitration

    The arbitration process can be as informal as having a conversation with your insurance company and an arbitrator. It usually takes place over the phone, but you could also choose to do it in person or even by mail. The decision will be made within 15 days of the call; however, if no agreement is reached between parties, then each party chooses an arbitrator and they come to a decision.

    One of the most frustrating things when dealing with car repairs is finding out that your insurance company is not going to help pay for them. There are many reasons why they might refuse to do so and in some cases, there isn’t anything you can do about it unless you are willing to take legal action.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?

    • The new BMW M240i xDrive barely puts a foot wrong. The price is right, it's crushingly quick, more than practical enough to daily and if you only look at the front, it is very easy on the eye πŸ˜‰ 

It pulls properly hard, doesn’t feel turbocharged in its response, and delivers thrills when you want them. The extra confidence and pace afforded by the sweet pairing of the straight-six petrol engine and the rear-biased xDrive AWD system make the M240i an enticing proposition all of its own.

If you gave any BMW fan a wish list and asked them to build the perfect car given the company's current resources, it probably wouldn't be too far off this one.
