Expenses should be charged to P & L A/c after considering amount received from insurance company.

when yu are paying for the repairs and maintenance, yu can debit the amount paid in repairs and maintenance - vehicle account and subsequently, when you receive the insurance claim, yu can credit the same account with the amount and the net amount will be the expenses. Hope, if my answer is not correct , others can correct
