11 Things to Do (And 5 Things To Avoid) If You Get in an Auto Accident (continued)
(6) Call the police if the accident is on a public roadway.They can help document your case and prove how it happened.
(7) Move your car and yourself off the highway after getting all your data / evidence. Standing in the street
or waiting in your damaged car on the roadway can be dangerous. Turn on your flashers and put up warning
triangles well in front of the accident to warn other drivers.
(8) Observe the other drivers' actions after the crash. If they are crawling under their car to inspect damage
after an accident, then they don't have a serious injury. A photo of this wouldn't hurt your case.
(9) Control your temper. It is easier for the police to determine you are at fault if you are a raving hothead.
You will be the one they remember two months from now in court. Stay cool.
(10) Get the names and badge numbers of police present. Each officer may have a different view of what the
evidence was, and having contact with all of them might help your case.
(11) Get a copy of your claim file from your insurance company. Double check to make sure your claim is accurate.
A mistake found today can save you from paying high premiums in the future.
