Unfortunately, I have had more than one accident. What I learned is that this event can be a money-sucker. So, the first thing I do after having one is to see what services I can get for free. Can I get my deductible waived? Will a co-worker give me a ride to work? I don't want to end up in a worse spot after a car crash whether it's my fault or not. How do you save money after an auto accident?
For one thing, you don't want to jump into things. You want to carefully weigh your options. For instance, you might need to shop around for the best repairman. Also, if the damage is light, then you might want to avoid using insurance because it would increase the premiums.
