Do I need to tell my insurance company if someone hits me?
Yes. You need to declare all accidents that you’re involved in, regardless of who or what was at fault. Almost every insurance provider will have a clause in their policy requiring you to declare any incidents you’ve been involved in while driving in the past 5 years. Sep 20, 2021
What happens in a 50/50 insurance claim?
As each party takes equal blame for the accident, both are entitled to claim compensation for any damages and personal injury they may have suffered. How a 50/50 claim works is that when any damages are awarded to either party, you will only receive 50% of the amount awarded as you will be liable for the other 50%. Feb 11, 2022
How long do you have to tell insurance about accident?
If you’re involved in an accident, you must tell your insurance company as soon as possible. Most insurers specify that you must inform them within 24 hours of the incident.
