There is. Heres what you should do
  Dont even get into it   Some accidents just
happen and you really have no control over these
occurrences. Most accidents, however, are based
on human error. The fastest way to claims is to
not claim at all. Either the accident should be
minor and not require you to file a claim or you
should avoid getting into situations that have
nothing to do with claims (such as no accidents
at all).   Drive responsibly. Avoid high-accident
possibility scenarios such as rash driving,
changing lanes without warning, over speeding,
drunk driving, and not following traffic rules.
Take public transport, if its feasible for you.
Most people who get used to cars dont realize
that public transport is efficient, quick, and
relatively safer.

If it has to be done, do what the insurers say
(and quick)
Sometimes, following a process is the fastest way
to get things done even if you dont like it.
Accidents arent fun either you did get into
one, didnt you? The first step is to report the
accident immediately and do exactly what the
insurers ask you do. Dont hatch any clever
plans. Dont bother taking it to a nearby
mechanic. Dont change anything about the scene,
the car, or the situation. Report everything as
is. The more truthful you are, the faster the
outcome is. So admit it if its your fault.
Insurance covers for your faults too.   Insurance
claims will involve investigation, reports, and
processes. You can help speed up these processes.
The claims are valid only if the accident is
recent or immediately.   Understand what car
insurance companies do.

Do your due diligence on the spot
With a little planning and a proactive approach,
you could almost half the time it takes for
insurance companies to process your claims. Youd
just have to think ahead. According to Kimberly
Lankford of Kiplinger.com, it helps when you
dont just exchange information such as contact
details with the other party involved in a
skirmish or an accident. Instead, go proactive
and take pictures of both the cars (and personal
damages instantly. The pictures should include
the scene of the accident, the insurance card of
the other driver, the actual state of the
vehicles, the other drivers license plate,
registration, and any other details you can get
hold of. Grab some witnesses and record
statements if you have to.

Check with insurance companies and use tools
for faster claims
Some auto insurance companies provide you
with facilities to help you speed up the car
insurance claim process. You could use mobile
apps or mobile websites (if available) to upload
the pictures and other information right from
where you are at the accident scene. Read Full
