WHAT HAPPENS IN AN ACCIDENT IF YOU'RE NOT AT FAULT?

If you’re not at fault for the car accident and do not have insurance, you may be able to claim against the other driver’s insurer. If the other driver has comprehensive car insurance, you might be able to claim the entire cost of repairs.

Waiting for the other party to get into gear can cost you time and money. We're here to help you make a claim and get you back on the road sooner.

Starting not-at-fault insurance claims

It can be hard to know where to begin if you’re looking to claim another driver’s insurance company. Car insurance claims are complex, and a not-at-fault accident is not as straightforward as you think.

We can contact your insurer, who will contact the other driver’s insurance company. If you do not have car insurance, we can liaise directly with the at-fault party’s insurer on your behalf.

In the meantime, we can lend you one of our accident replacement vehicles if your car insurance policy does not include a hire car.

frequently asked 
questions about 
insurance

What should I do in an accident for which I’m not at fault?

First, ensure you and the other people involved in the accident are safe and that the road has been made safe for passing vehicles. Then, trade insurance details with the other driver.

Do not admit fault for the accident. The police will make a detailed report, which the insurance providers will use to assess responsibility.

Then, call Sheen. We’ll organise a tow truck for you and have our claims team contact the insurance providers to sort out payment.

What do I do if I am at fault for the car accident?

If you are the at-fault driver, we’ll still help you. Contact our team, and we’ll liaise with your insurer on your behalf while we repair your smashed vehicle.

What’s the best car insurance policy?

We cannot recommend a car insurer. However, we can assure you that we work with all insurance companies and can liaise with them so that you don’t need to go through the stress of that process.
