As a driver you must give your insurance details to anyone who has been injured or who wishes to make a claim against you, even though you may feel you are not to blame for the car accident.
Likewise, you may ask for another person’s insurance if you have been injured or you wish to make a claim against them. Failure to provide insurance details in these circumstances may constitute an offence, which should be reported to the police.
The policy number and the address of the driver’s insurance company is all that is generally required. These details are contained on your insurance certificate. Should the third party fail to provide insurance details it may be possible to trace the insurer from the vehicle registration alone. Please obtain as much information you can at the scene of the accident.
The police will only record insurance details when a person has been injured or killed in a road accident.
