WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I WAS INJURED IN A CAR ACCIDENT?

First and foremost, it is important to remain calm at the scene of the accident. If you or anyone has been injured than you should call an ambulance immediately. Often times people think they are not injured enough to call an ambulance, but it is better to be safe than sorry. Additionally, ambulance reports often have important information and value in personal injury claims.

If you are able to, obtain information about the other driver(s) and vehicle(s) involved in the accident. Identify any witnesses to the accident and obtain their names and contact information.

ACCIDENT SCENES ARE DANGEROUS

In this day and age, everyone has cell phones with cameras and it is often a good idea to take photos of the vehicle damage and any injuries. With that said, accident scenes can be dangerous and your number one concern should be your safety and listening to the police.
