Accident Recovery in Bangor: Who Moves the Car
Car Tow NI, a Belfast-based vehicle recovery company, covers accident recovery across Bangor and the rest of Northern Ireland. After a collision the vehicle is usually lifted rather than towed, because bent steering or a locked wheel means it cannot roll on its own.
Who recovers a car from a crash in Bangor?
After a collision the first job is people, not vehicles. Ring the emergency services first if anybody is injured or traffic cannot get past. Recovery follows once the scene is motorbike recovery safe.
Collision damage usually means the vehicle has to be lifted rather than towed. Bent steering, a locked wheel or a leaking tank all mean the vehicle goes on the bed. Car Tow NI takes accident recovery calls from Bangor and across Northern Ireland.
How much does accident recovery cost?
Often nothing to you directly, because where a claim is running the insurer usually deals with the recovery and the storage. Settle who is paying before it is loaded, and let your insurer know where the car has gone.
What is the difference between a flat deck and a wheel lift?
With a wheel lift, two wheels stay on the road. That is fast, and it works fine when the car rolls freely. A flat deck lifts the lot.
Anything four wheel drive, anything damaged and anything low goes on the flat. Tell the operator what you are driving, since the truck is chosen before it sets off.
How to heal from a car accident?
That is a question for a doctor rather than a recovery firm, and the honest advice is to get checked even if you feel fine at the scene. Whiplash and stiffness commonly show up a day or two afterwards, so note down what you felt and when.
What should you do while you wait at the roadside?
Pull the car as far onto the verge or hard shoulder as it will go, switch the hazards on and think about where it is safe to stand. On a fast route it means getting out and well away from the traffic side.
A high visibility vest belongs in the boot, and so is a torch once the evenings draw in. Children and pets come out on the verge side, never the traffic side. Then wait for the truck rather than trying a repair on a live road.
