๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ฒ
When you hear the phrase โ3rd partyโ in a car accident claim, they are referring to the other partyโs insurance involved in the car accident, not you. This may be the other driverโs insurance or if you were a passenger in a fault vehicle, it would be for the driver of that vehicleโs insurance.
Furthermore, sometimes there are non vehicles involved in accidents. If a non vehicle such as a construction zone, airbag manufacturer, etc is the reason for your accident, they would also be considered as a 3rd party. Keep in mind, you may have multiple 3rd parties involved in your case.
