Well, sometimes that happens. It\u2019s not a <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">nice<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> reality, but people do have to deal with it. You might find that despite you working hard for a nice car, someone is envious of it and uses their keys to scratch the bodywork. Or perhaps someone thinks you\u2019ve parked in their space and bends your windscreen wipers to emphasize a point. <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Perhaps<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> you\u2019ve just parked next to someone who opened a door and dented your car without leaving <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"http:\/\/www.edelalon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">their information<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">All of this can be pretty disheartening to deal with. Some people never have to experience it, and that\u2019s great. This guide is for those who do. If you find yourself dealing with vandalism to your vehicle, here\u2019s how to go about it:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Check The Car Before Driving <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">it<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Before you do anything, <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brake.org.uk\/get-involved\/take-action\/mybrake\/knowledge-centre\/roadmap-to-safe-and-healthy-journeys\/check-your-vehicle-is-safe-to-use#:~:text=Check%20lights%20are%20clean%20and,wiper%20blades.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">make sure<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> your car is still safe to drive<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. If you notice <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">obviously<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> purposeful damage, unfortunately, there could be a chance of further danger outside of just cosmetic. That doesn\u2019t mean you need to drop down to the ground like a Secret Service agent and check underneath, but if there\u2019s broken glass, slashed tires, or anything that could make driving dangerous, don\u2019t get in. <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Take photos of the damage<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, and if<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> it\u2019s bad enough, call for roadside assistance instead to ensure a safe towing.<\/span> <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If you can drive, <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">still<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> check the handling and brakes and <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">make sure<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> no damage is present.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> If you\u2019re <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">at all<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> concerned, have it towed for a more in-depth <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">check.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Log The Police Report &amp; Document Any Evidence<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Even if it seems minor, report the vandalism. It might not lead to anything, but having a police report can help with insurance claims <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">as well as<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> your evidentiary pictures. Some areas have online reporting options, so you might not <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">even<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> need to go in person.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">While you\u2019re at it, take clear photos of the damage from different angles, too, making sure the light isn\u2019t covering it. If <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">there are security cameras<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> nearby, check if you can get the footage. The more proof you have, the better, and you may be able to sue for damages.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Head To A Bodywork Shop &amp; Keep Receipts<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Depending on the damage, you might need a body shop <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">or<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> a glass repair service, or a more specific model-based option like <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.masportscars.co.uk\/manufacturers\/bmw\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">BMW body repair<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. If you\u2019re claiming through insurance, check if they have a preferred repairer just in case.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> If not, find a reputable shop and get a quote so you can <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">supply this as well<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Then, keep all receipts, even if you\u2019re paying out of pocket. Some insurance policies cover vandalism under comprehensive coverage, so you <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">might be able to<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> claim it back later. It\u2019s not a fun process and, of course, harms your no-claims bonus, but it\u2019s better than paying for it now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With this advice, we hope you can more easily deal with vandalism to your vehicle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dealing with damage from a road collision is one thing to deal with, but what about intentional vandalism?
