What To Do After A Car Crash
After getting into a car crash there are a few things you should do. First you must determine the extent of any injuries sustained by both the Drivers and passengers. If it’s only a fender bender there probably is no need to call an ambulance of course. However if in doubt, be sure to call emergency medical care.
You should also call the police to get a report on file. The police will advise you whether to move your crashed vehicle or leave it for investigation. Statements will also be taken from all drivers. Make sure to always tell the truth, even if it’s a little embarrassment. Lies will quickly catch up with you.
Avoid saying “I’m Sorry” or “I know it’s my fault”, you may not understand all the facts about the collision. Leave it to the investigators to determine who is at fault. Also be sure to call your local insurance Agent to inform them of the occurrence. Your agent will also take record of what you say so be descriptive and explain well.
Exchange information such as insurance information, drivers license information. Also get the vehicles license plate number. It’s also good to get contact information of witnesses in case negligence of the accident is taken to court.
Take pictures of everything. The cars, the road, tracks, license plates, damages, a picture is worth a thousand words and can help you prove your case in a court of law.
