Accidents are rare, but they happen, it's important to be prepared. If an accident occurs, the driver should:

• Warn you: Immediate communication is crucial.

A detailed statement from the driver about the accident, may be requested.

Note: Keep your communication with drivers through FlynCar messaging it can be useful in case of a dispute.

Next Steps

• If the vehicle can be repaired promptly and safely, arrange for the repairs. The driver may continue using the vehicle if it's safe to do so.

• If the vehicle requires extensive repairs, a replacement vehicle should be provided for the driver to continue their journey. If you don’t have a replacement, please contact us for assistance.

In Case of vehicle theft
