When coping with an accident
It makes sense to be prepared for accidents, just in case. For example, we recommend you keep a disposable camera, pen and paper in your glovebox to prove events when you come to making your insurance claim afterwards.
Here is a brief checklist of things to do if you are unlucky enough to be involved in an accident.
- If necessary, call emergency services
- Take photos of the accident scene and damage to all vehicles
- Obtain details of all parties
- Name and address
- Vehicle make(s) and registration
- Insurance details
- Phone numbers
- Obtain details of a witness
How FOXY Lady Drivers Club can help
We understand that being involved in an accident or collision is not just stressful but it's often unfairly expensive and very inconvenient as well.
Membership of FOXY Lady Drivers Club includes fast and free advice for members and their families as part of a female friendly Accident Assistance service. We recommend that members take advice as soon as they have all the details after an accident but before they contact their insurer; so they can understand their repair choices in advance.
This Accident Assistance service for members is at the end of 24 hour FREEFONE number 0800 093 8441 (quote FOXY Lady Drivers Club).
Where an accident is clearly not your fault this service will
- arrange a like-for-like replacement vehicle (where applicable)
- appoint an independent assessor to inspect your car and produce a report detailing repairs required or whether your vehicle is a write off
- arrange speedy repairs where applicable, at a qualified accident repair centre including members of the FOXY Choice approved FEMALE FRIENDLY UK garage network
- liaise with your insurance company and that of the negligent party
whilst keeping you informed of progress at all times.
Where an accident was clearly your fault this service may be able to reduce the cost of any claim made against you so it makes sense to take advice at the outset.
Details of this service are included in the VIP Members area of this website and in the Membership Welcome Pack sent to new members.
