A road accident can be stressful, especially when it happens during an active ride. You may need to think about an injured passenger, your own condition, vehicle damage, police procedures, insurance, and your Yango account at the same time.

The most important thing is to handle the situation in the right order. Take care of people first, report the accident properly, keep the necessary documents, and only then deal with insurance and vehicle-related matters.

This guide explains the practical steps Yango riders in Nepal should take after a road accident.

1. Make Sure Everyone Is Safe

Your first priority should be the safety of everyone involved.

Check yourself, your passenger, and any third party involved in the accident. If someone is injured, arrange medical help and take the injured person to an appropriate hospital when necessary.

Do not start worrying about the trip, earnings, insurance, or vehicle repairs before dealing with an urgent injury.

Try to remain calm and avoid arguments at the accident scene. If there is immediate danger from traffic, take reasonable steps to prevent another accident while following the situation and instructions of the relevant authorities.

Yango’s Nepal safety information also highlights in-app safety features and driver verification as part of its wider safety approach.

2. Inform Nepal Police and Report the Incident

For a road accident involving injuries or circumstances requiring official action, inform Nepal Police from the accident location and follow the applicable procedure.

A police report can be important later when dealing with an insurance claim or explaining the circumstances of the accident.

When speaking with the authorities:

• Give accurate information about what happened.
• Avoid guessing or providing false information.
• Keep any police reference or report provided to you.
• Follow instructions given at the accident scene.

The police documentation can become one of the important records used during the follow-up process.

3. Report the Accident Through the Appropriate Yango Support Channel

After the immediate safety situation is under control, report the accident through the appropriate Yango channel.

Yango’s Support Centre includes a Safety category with an option for traffic accidents. Yango Pro’s Kathmandu support guidance also states that drivers can use in-app support, including chat with a specialist, and can ask questions related to active orders through the order card.

When reporting the accident, be ready to explain:

• When the accident happened
• Where it happened
• Whether anyone was injured
• What happened during the incident
• Relevant trip information
• Vehicle damage, if applicable

Give clear and accurate information and follow the instructions provided through the applicable support process.

4. Inform the Relevant Insurance Contact

If the accident may involve an insurance claim, inform the relevant insurance contact according to the applicable policy and claim procedure.

Do not wait until all documents are collected before finding out what the insurer requires. Early communication can help you understand the next steps and avoid missing important claim requirements.

The exact insurance process, eligibility, and coverage depend on the applicable policy and circumstances of the accident.

5. Keep the Important Accident and Medical Documents

After the accident, proper documentation can make the insurance process much easier.

Depending on the incident, keep:

• Police report or police reference
• Hospitalization documents
• Medical reports
• Original hospital bills
• Original payment bills and vouchers
• Relevant trip information
• Photos of vehicle damage or the accident scene, where safe and appropriate

If an injured rider or third party receives treatment, keep the original documents rather than relying only on photographs or copies.

These records may be required during the insurance claim review.

6. Understand the Medical and Insurance Process

If you or another person involved in the accident requires treatment, medical care should come first.

Depending on the insurance process, the injured person may initially need to arrange treatment and keep the related expenses and documents. An eligible claim can then be reviewed according to the applicable insurance policy.

Do not assume that every expense will automatically be covered. Insurance claims depend on the incident, policy terms, eligibility, required documents, and claim review.

For Yango riders and passengers, the applicable insurance and safety processes should be checked through the relevant Yango or insurance channels. Yango’s Nepal safety page includes an insurance policy section, while Yango’s support system provides a dedicated Safety category for accident-related issues.

7. Check Your Vehicle Before Going Back Online

Do not return to work immediately just because the accident has been reported.

Inspect your vehicle and complete the necessary repairs. Even when damage appears minor, the vehicle may not be safe for another trip.

Before driving again:

• Make sure necessary repairs are completed.
• Check that the vehicle is safe and roadworthy.
• Do not drive if you are injured or unable to focus.
• Complete any required verification before going online again.

Your safety and your passenger’s safety should come before returning to work quickly.

What Happens If Your Yango Account Is Suspended After an Accident?

An accident may result in additional vehicle or account checks before you can return to work.

Based on the process you provided for InnoHub drivers, the rider may need to:

• Repair the damaged vehicle.
• Submit photos of the repaired vehicle through the applicable Photo Check process.
• Complete the required official verification.
• Wait for the relevant safety review before returning online.

InnoHub can guide drivers through the process and help them prepare the required information or documentation.

However, InnoHub cannot manually bypass Yango’s verification or safety review process. Final platform decisions remain subject to the applicable Yango process.

Mistakes to Avoid After a Road Accident

After an accident, avoid:

• Ignoring an injured person
• Leaving the accident scene irresponsibly
• Delaying necessary police reporting
• Providing false information
• Throwing away original medical bills or vouchers
• Assuming every expense will automatically be covered
• Returning to work with an unsafe vehicle
• Trying to bypass a required verification process
• Sharing your Yango account password or verification code with anyone

Staying calm and keeping proper records can make the next steps easier to manage.
