If someone hits you and you report it does that count as making a claim and loose your no claims?!

If you are involved in an accident you must stop and give your name and home address to anybody who has grounds to need it. If someone is injured you must report the accident to the Police. This includes certain animals, but not all. Never admit fault at the scene of the accident. Ask witnesses for their details to help with any claim that you make. Make a note of the position of all vehicles involved, road signs and markings. If you have a camera with you take pictures to help your case.
A mate of mine was involved in an accident several years ago in his firms lorry. He stopped and gave his name, the name and address of his employer. It turns out the woman had a Policeman as a friend and it ended up with my mate getting done for failing to exchange details because he gave his employers address and not his own home address. He tried to play fair but got done for it. I know the Police have a job to do and at times it's not easy but is it any wonder they get no respect at times when they behave like this.
