What Is a Multi-Car Accident?

Simply put, a multi-car collision is a road traffic collision involving more than one vehicle. This generally occurs on high-capacity and high-speed routes, like highways, and oftentimes unfavorable weather plays a large factor.

Multi-car accidents usually accrue a lot of damage on all ends of your vehicle, so you’ll need to schedule a collision repair estimate.

What to Do If You’ve Been in a Multi-Car Accident

• Stay Calm

Following an accident, it’s crucial that you stay as calm as possible. Take a moment to take a few deep breaths before assessing the situation to make sure you’re not rushing through the steps.

• Check for Injuries

Before leaving your car, assess yourself for injuries. It’s important to note that if you feel any neck pain or if you hit your head, you should stay put and call for assistance. If you’re able to leave your car, check to make sure that the other drivers are okay.

• Call for Help

In a multi-car collision, it’s important to call for help to ensure the safety of every driver. The police will arrive to make a report and can call for additional assistance as needed.

• Take Pictures

Take pictures of any damage on your car and on any car you may have collided with. These are important documents for your claim with the insurance company.

• Make a Claim

Once you’re safe and at home, you’re ready to make a claim. Make sure that you have any notes, information, and pictures you may need on hand, so you can accurately answer all of your insurance company’s questions.

• Schedule an Estimate and Repairs

After you’ve made a claim, it’s time to schedule an estimate for repairs. Your insurance company will make a recommendation on where to get repairs, but you can choose a different collision center if you trust them. Schedule an estimate with more than one repair center if you like, and then make an appointment with the one you prefer.
