FAQ

1. What should I do if I get in an accident?

Remain calm. If there are no injuries, it is not necessary to call the police. You must fill out a joint report (constat amiable), in order to provide the information that will be necessary to make a claim. However, you must call the police if any of the following circumstances apply:

  • Someone has been injured.
  • You are outside your province.
  • You are the victim of a hit and run, theft or vandalism.

If you need a tow-truck:

 

Contact us, as well as your insurer.
Even if the accident seems minor:
  • Never leave the scene of an accident before either contacting the police or filling out a joint report.
  • Get to a safe spot, out of the traffic.
  • If necessary, move your vehicle to avoid blocking traffic.


2. Who chooses the body shop: me or my insurer?

It’s up to you. Following an accident, your insurer can recommend a body shop near you, but the final decision is yours.
