Tips

What You Should Do After a Car Crash:

Pull your vehicle over to the side of the road if drivable.
Call 911. You or any other party to the crash may need an ambulance. You also need a police officer to arrive on the scene and provide a driver’s exchange report.
Document the scene. Take pictures and videos of the area the crash occurred. Take pictures of both vehicles.
Secure Witnesses. Get the names and numbers of people who witnessed the crash, if possible.
Seek medical attention immediately. Go to the Hospital or be seen by another qualified medical professional. It is important to get your injuries examined and treatment set up promptly.
DO NOT ADMIT FAULT.
