Printable checklist
After a road accident in Italy
Keep a private file. Safety and medical care come first.
- 01 · SceneDate, place, original photographs, vehicle registrations and witness contacts. Never collect evidence from an unsafe position.
- 02 · Accident statementA complete copy of the CAI/CID as signed. Explain mistakes separately; do not silently change the original.
- 03 · AuthoritiesPolice force, station and reference; note which documents still need to be requested.
- 04 · Medical recordsItalian records and subsequent treatment at home, prescriptions and test results.
- 05 · ExpensesInvoices, payment evidence and a note connecting each expense to the accident. Not every expense is necessarily recoverable.
- 06 · VehiclePre-repair photographs, estimates, towing and storage records; establish how inspection can take place.
- 07 · CorrespondenceClaim messages, attachments, delivery evidence, offers and documents to sign.
- 08 · Open tasksMissing records, who holds them and approaching deadlines. Do not wait for a complete file before checking time limits.
Use this list to organise your documents. Keep personal records private.
General information. The appropriate procedure depends on the facts. An enquiry does not create an engagement or acceptance of responsibility for a deadline.
