Mathur informs, "The police FIR can be avoided in case of minor accidents like dents. It is a must where there is a bodily injury or death involved in case of major accidents. If your car is stolen, then you will have to submit an FIR copy to the insurer. Keep a copy of it for yourself. It's always better to call up the insurer immediately and intimate the accidental event. But some insurers may have a lesser time-period to report. Also, even before taking the vehicle to the garage, intimating the insurer helps.

Ensure the documents are sent to insurer: The claim process will not begin unless all documents are received by the insurer. Ask the insurer about the requisite documents and the time within which they have to be arranged. The claim may not be denied even if the delay happens.

According to Jain, "Claim liability cannot be denied or dented if required documents are not submitted on time. Capturing the scene of the event helps. Also, take note of witnesses, their names, and contact details along with other party involved if any ; will help at the time of third-party settlement," says Mathur. In addition, if possible, take the photo of the policy of the third-party involved as it may help during claim. Read the policy document carefully: At the time of receiving the policy cover note, the insurer also sends the policy document containing the inclusions, exclusions, and so on in detail.

We want these to be shared as much as possible. Comment by Nicky Reeves posted on on 20 September Can I encourage you to develop one that specifically considers people who navigate their computer with voice recognition software,, as I do? Comment by jamesbuller posted on on 21 September Comment by jimmy posted on on 22 January Comment by JonghoKim posted on on 21 September Comment by Karwai Pun posted on on 21 September We have a Sketch workfile on GitHub that can be used to reversion the posters into different languages.

Comment by Chob posted on on 22 September Is there any possibility to get another source file to translate them? Comment by Karwai Pun posted on on 14 October We're currently looking to create them in another source file for all users. We'll let you know once that's done.

Appreciate your interest in these! Comment by Alexis posted on on 21 September I'd love to see the research your team has done that led to these wonderful posters. Specifically, the work done to optimize for hard of hearing users. Are there links to studies? Comment by Karwai Pun posted on on 15 October Comment by Inca posted on on 22 September This may be true for low vision users, users on the autistic spectrum, users with dyslexia and users with motor disabilities, and also users with cognitive impairments. Comment by Ollie Nilsen posted on on 22 September Comment by Bart Nelis posted on on 22 September I really like the fact that it is not just about 'blind people' but all sorts of users.

Comment by David posted on on 23 September Hello, there's a download link on GitHub: Comment by glen posted on on 23 September They'd be even nicer if you went one more step and made the PDF files accessible ie, tagged pdf. Visually, they look like tables so you could tag them as tables. Or you could tag them as bulleted lists like you did in this article. I should have started off by saying 'thank you' for working on accessibility rather than going right into my suggestion.

We've received quite a lot of attention on these posters and are aiming to make them as accessible as we can. Tagging the PDFs will be the next thing we look to improve.

Dos and don'ts while filing your motor insurance claim

Comment by Mustafa Zahid Efe posted on on 27 September They're really important advices. I gonna translate those to Turkish. Comment by Jules posted on on 04 October As someone with mild aspergers - and an aspergers son - and a School Governor with interest in the Autistic Spectrum may I comment on the Accessibility Poster: Autistic spectrum people tend to take things literally. Euphemisms or over-simplified icons can be not understood. So things need to be familiar - not in code hence plain English - but this also means that realism or skeumorphism is better than unrealistic "flat" - so shading and depth are preferable to bright "Fisher Price" colours.

The posters

Absolutely - so why so few lists of Contents? These help provide context and info in a quick to read, user-friendly fashion. It tells the User exactly what to do. Doubt arises if the text alongside is unclear - or the "button" doesn't look like a "button" but a plain slab with plain text instead - like "Attach files".

Hi Jules, many thanks for your feedback. Regarding your point on buttons, while "click here" do literally tell the user what to do, what we were aiming for was to explain that the words were unclear as to indicate what will happen next once that button is clicked. However, your other suggestions, including the one on skeumorphism and coordinating layouts so memory is not heavily relied upon is duly noted. You've raised some interesting points to consider which can feed into improving and iterating these posters further which is greatly appreciated so many thanks for that.

Comment by Nathan McIntosh posted on on 06 November When screen readers are used some users navigate quickly using only the links on the page as navigation "waypoints" to jump to the section they want. Then you expect the user to listen to a full url to figure out what the destination of that link will be.

Comment by Jon Kantner posted on on 05 October By the way, I have one question. Someone with high-functioning autism may have a hard time understanding idioms although it won't necessarily affect their basic language skills. Comment by Jake posted on on 08 October Thanks for this great post. I saw a link to it in this week's issue of "Top Tech Tidbits for Thursday. I personally have gotten some of the audio ones to work, but if at all possible they should be avoided.

We're gathering a lot of useful tips and advice from feedback we've received to feed into future iterations of the posters so really appreciate your feedback. Comment by Vi-Naita Begonia posted on on 15 October Comment by Karwai Pun posted on on 16 October If you can commit the translations to our repository so they're available for everyone.

There's a discussion on Github where someone wanted to translate them to French: Comment by Steve Blakeborough posted on on 21 October This is an excellent resource. Thank you so much for sharing. I'll definitely be printing them out and putting them up in the office. Comment by Lynn Fisher posted on on 03 November Thank you very much for these posters. The City of Philadelphia Office of Emergency Management will keep these helpful tips in mind while designing our outreach materials. Comment by Lloyd posted on on 10 November Would love to have seen "don't upload images of text" for the screen readers poster though.

It's something I come across at work a lot, and it's a big no-no for users with disabilities. Comment by Karwai Pun posted on on 10 November Hi Lloyd, we're keeping a list of suggestions and tips from everyone for future iteration and next steps with the posters so we really appreciate your feedback.

Dos and don'ts on designing for accessibility - Accessibility in government

Comment by Research Snipers posted on on 20 December This is a really great post. But the way you put it together is pretty good. Comment by conseguir dinero online posted on on 28 December A great list, I really congratulate you for all the work done, without a doubt the one who made this publication deserves 5 points. Comment by Claire Murray posted on on 01 February These are great resources and i've linked to them from our website http: We the Patient Information Forum are putting together an event on accessible health information, we'd love to have someone from your team come and talk about your work developing these guidelines and designing accessible digital information.

You can contact us at claire. Comment by Karwai Pun posted on on 01 February Hi Claire, thank you, glad you found the posters really helpful. We'll get in touch with you soon to discuss your event in more detail. Comment by Ayietim posted on on 02 February Comment by Gustavo Woltmann posted on on 04 February This information is very timely, I will comment it to some friends who are engaged in this, thanks for this incredible post.

Comment by Cheryl Joyce posted on on 10 February This work is really refreshing and highlights the specific needs of the different users quite accurately. Just a thought, although there are some common issues within the different user groups, people are individuals, so I think the ability to personalise is what will truly enable accessibility. I'm personally grateful for these efforts and would like to know how to get involved?

These needs are wide ranging and sometimes contradictory across the different types of users. How can a designer meet all these needs for one website? Is there a way to design all the elements for each of the different users and then put them on some sort of overlay? And when say, an autistic person uses the site, they can turn on the design that's meant for them, or a person who is blind can turn on the design suited for them etc.. Or should a designer include as many elements as possible to suit as many different users as possible, and then allow ways for the user to personalise the site to their needs?

Comment by Karwai Pun posted on on 28 June The work our interns Megan and Simon are doing is currently being developed here: Comment by Georgina posted on on 27 February Really useful resource, thanks. I plan on printing them out on putting them round the office to make people keep thinking about them.

Comment by Roberto posted on on 20 June Comment by Sascha Leib posted on on 21 June Simply give your own details i. Don't admit liability at the scene of the accident. Many people will be surprised to learn that it is actually very often a condition of their insurance policy not to admit liability following an accident. Even where one is blatantly at fault one should politely assist the other driver particularly where the other party has been injured and then exchange particulars and indicate to the other driver that you are going to report the matter to your insurance company.

Time and time again we receive examples of drivers admitting liability at the scence of the accident and then denying it subsequently. Whereas if one admits liability at the scene of the accident it is not conclusive that one is going to be held to blame subsequently. Nevertheless, it is better for all sides concerned that liability should not be admitted at the accident scene.

If the Gardai are called to the scene of the accident and you are asked to explain what happened, simply explain what happened to the Garda. Don't leave the scene of the accident until particulars have been exchanged. If one encounters an irate driver who is insisting that the cars remain in their position following the accident until the Gardai are called, one should be cautious here and ascertain whether or not the Gardai are going to be called out or not.

If they are not, firmly and politely state to the other driver that you have fulfilled your obligations and that you are reporting the matter to the Gardai yourself. If there is an injury and the Gardai are being called you should remain at the scene of the accident until the Gardai arrive. Don't take literally what the other driver states to you at the scene of the accident.
