Steps to Take After an Accident in a Rental Car When You're Not Listed on the Contract

I was involved in an accident while driving a rental car, but I wasn’t listed as the renter or authorized driver on the contract. I was behind the wheel when the accident happened, and the other driver was at fault. A claim has already been filed through both my insurance and the third party’s. The rental car is currently with Enterprise, and I’m waiting for the police report and a damage estimate from them. What should I do next?

You have to wait, you cant do anything yet

I meant not a driver on the contract, I was driving the car when the accident happened.

That doesn’t change my answer. There’s nothing more you need to do until the companies handle the claim.
