What should I do right after an auto accident?
A:
What should I do right after an auto accident?
Call the police, so witnesses will be located and an independent police report will be filed. Do not admit fault. Seek prompt medical attention if you’re injured. Take photographs of the damage to each vehicle.
Report the accident to your own auto insurance company, even if you are not at fault (your carrier has an obligation to investigate the accident). You may also be entitled to certain insurance benefits under your own policy.
Don’t give a statement to the other driver’s insurance company! There’s no reason to, especially in the beginning.
You may wish to at least consult with an experienced lawyer if (1) there’s a dispute about who caused the accident, (2) your injuries are serious, permanent or long-lasting, or (3) your medical bills and wage loss is expected to exceed $5,000.
