We exclude the occurrence of traffic accidents, in no way try to bring them closer or set you up for them, but if you read this article, in case of an incident, it will be easier for you to get in critical situation. Every time when you board an aircraft you are told about emergency exits and the use of life jackets, this does not mean that you will necessarily use them, it is just that you know how and what to do in case of crash.

Your car is stolen
This is almost impossible, Georgia has not stolen a car under President Saakashvili for 8 years, now there are cases, but they are extremely rare. Car driving is not interesting and almost not real. With the car you can not do anything. If the thefts occur, then most likely cars worth 10 000 US dollars and with the purpose of transfer to the occupied territories: Ossetia, Abkhazia, through Russia to Chechnya, Dagestan.
Smashed the wheel
If you damaged the wheel, use a spare. If the cause of the damage was during an accident, the cost of the wheel will be compensated by the insurance company, if you just pierce the wheel, we will hold the cost of two similar wheels on the axis of the car.
You damaged the car because of the road
If this happens, you can also call an insurance company. Note that this is almost impossible, unless of course you have not used the car in off-road conditions. All our cars have a pallet protection engine and damage the crankcase is quite difficult, however such cases occur.
Do not try to deceive or bribe the police, it does not take bribes. The police will consider your case objectively and will react very loyally to you. There are no foundations in Georgia, to punish a tourist or strip him, on the contrary, you will be in priority.
