Call the Police Immediately:

In an emergency, call 911, but if you’ve sustained injuries that can wait for transport to the hospital, call your local police station. When dispatch picks up the phone, be sure to tell them everything you can remember from what happened. It’s going to take them a little while to reach the scene, so the sooner you give them a call, the better. If you’re unable to reach anyone else to tell them about the accident, the officer can help you with anything you need.

Take Pictures:

If possible, capture some photos of the scene that can help support how and why the accident happened, when overlooking the area, covering everything from the initial damages, license plates of other vehicles, and any road marks that could be evidence of your injuries. To ensure that you receive everything that you’re entitled to, you’ll need to provide as much evidence as possible.

Ask Questions:

When it comes time to file a claim with your insurance company, they’re going to want a full record of everyone that was involved, along with their information to correctly fill out a report and get everything resolved as quickly as possible. If possible, gather identification and insurance information from whoever else was involved in the accident.
