No, you don’t have to speak with the insurance company at the scene of the accident. Your focus should be on safety, getting medical help if needed, and cooperating with the police to file a report. It’s rare for insurance companies to contact you immediately, but if they do, only provide basic details and avoid discussing fault. You only need to exchange basic information (name, contact, insurance details) with the other driver. It’s a good idea to notify your own insurance company as soon as possible.
