IMPORTANT TIPS

  1. To avoid further risk or injury move your vehicle out of the way of traffic, if possible.
  2. Call 911 to report the accident and request medical assistance if there are injuries. Ensure that an accident report is completed by law enforcement.
  3. Do not lift or move an injured person unless absolutely necessary.
  4. Exchange contact information with all other parties involved. (i.e Driver’s license, description of the person, plate number, name, phone number)
  5. Take pictures of the accident scene including damages, traffic signs, skid marks and the surrounding area. Use the camera on your phone.
  6. Identify all potential witnesses. Get contact information from all witnesses.
  7. Get evaluated by a qualified medical professional as soon as possible. You may not experience pain or soreness right away. Many times a person may experience severe pain, muscle spasms and other medical issues days after a motor vehicle collision.
  8. Make detailed notes and keep a journal of the actual accident, injuries, doctor appointments, days missed from work, and out of pocket expenses related to the accident.
  9. Do not give a statement to the other driver’s insurance company. Their goal is to minimize your recovery.
