If you are involved in an accident in Georgia, know your rights. First, always get a police report, whether it is on private property, hit and run, or the other party asks you not to call the police. Second, the choice of repair facilities is yours alone. Neither the insurance company nor anyone else has a say in your decision. And, finally, find a reputable, certified shop to do the repairs for you. Go over their estimate before and after the repair. The shop is the one that will warranty the work, not the insurance company. Their requirement is to put your vehicle back to pre-accident condition. If you are not happy at any point, let them know. Good shops will take care of any issues you may have. If you have more questions call the Women’s Automotive Connection, 770-722-5211, or visit www.womensautomotiveconnection.com.
