Should I report my car accident to my insurance company even if the accident was not my fault?

Should you report your car accident to your insurance company? Even if the accident is not your fault, the short answer is yes under your policy. Even if the accident is not your fault, you have 30 days to report your car accident to your insurance company. You’re only doing this to put them on notice. If you report it within 30 days, and it turns out that the person that hit you does not have insurance or does not have enough insurance, then you will fulfill your obligation under your insurance contract, and your insurance company can step into the shoes of the person that hit you and provide either the rest of the coverage or the total coverage needed for you under your accident. These are issues that the Foster Firm can help you take care of.
