Been in a Minor Bump?
We'll check what's not visible and document it properly for your insurer.
📍 8/61 Wattle Road, Maidstone VIC 3012At the Scene
Check for injuries first, move to a safe location if the vehicles are drivable and it's safe to do so, and exchange details with the other driver — name, contact details, registration, and insurer if known. Take photos of both vehicles and the general scene before anything is moved, where safely possible.
Reporting
Contact your insurer promptly, even for a minor incident — most policies require reasonably prompt notification, and delaying can complicate a claim later.
Why a Full Check Matters Even for Minor Damage
Modern bumpers often house parking sensors and structural crash-absorbing components behind the visible panel — damage that doesn't show on the surface can still be present. A proper post-accident check goes beyond a visual look, checking structure and sensors that a glance can't assess.
Getting an Independent Assessment
A documented, independent inspection report — noting exactly what was checked and found — is useful both for your own peace of mind and as evidence if the insurance claim process raises questions about the extent of damage.
Don't assume "it still drives fine" means "it's fine": A car can drive completely normally after a bump that's caused hidden structural or sensor damage — the only way to know for certain is a proper check, not just a test drive.
For an example of how this plays out, see our case study: A Minor Prang Near the Ballarat Road/Geelong Road Interchange.
