What To Do if You Are Involved in a Car Accident
The moments following an accident can be rife with confusion over what steps should be taken first. If you are involved in a motorcycle accident you should:
- Move away from traffic or danger if possible
- Call 911 and request medical assistance
- Collect the name, phone number, and insurance information of any other drivers involved
- Gather witness statements if possible
- Give a police statement and collect the officers badge number
- Seek professional medical assistance
It's important that you avoid discussing the accident with the other drivers present. In many cases, the insurance company has cited what victims have said after the accident as reasons to reduce the amount of money they are entitled to. You may wish to consult an attorney before talking with the insurance company, too, in an effort to avoid giving the insurance company reasons to undervalue your claim.
Causes & Types of Car Accidents
From being distracted while driving to defective car parts, there are endless reasons why another driver could cause an accident. It is nearly impossible to predict when an accident will occur, even if you are driving safely and defensively. Many accidents are caused by the use of electronics while driving, such as being on the phone or texting.
We represent clients who have been hurt in all types of auto accidents, including:
- Single-car accidents
- Side impact accidents
- T-bone accidents
- Head-on collisions
- Rear-end accidents
