Follow these steps exactly. We will handle the paperwork later.
Prioritize safety first.
"My car met with an accident at [Location] around [Time]. I am safe. Please generate a Claim Registration Number."
Unless blocking heavy traffic, do not move the car immediately. Take 4 photos:
Do not negotiate with third parties on the spot. Do not admit liability in writing. Exchange contact details politely and let the insurer handle the legalities.

Do not let a local mechanic "fix it temporarily" before the surveyor sees it. This voids the claim.
