Your Legal Rights After a Not-Fault Car Accident in NSW

If another driver caused your vehicle damage, you are legally entitled to be placed back into the exact position you were in before the accident occurred.

1. You Have the Right to Choose Your Own Repairer

Many insurance companies will attempt to "steer" you toward their own preferred corporate repair network to save themselves money. However, it is your legal right to choose your independent smash repairer. You are not obligated to use the insurer’s choice, especially if you want to ensure genuine factory parts and premium structural alignment are used on your vehicle.

2. You Pay $0 Excess

Because you are not the driver at fault, you do not have to pay an insurance excess fee.
We recover all repair costs directly from the at-fault driver’s insurance company on your behalf.

3. You Are Entitled to a Free Accident Loan Car
