No one wants to be involved in a car accident. It’s stressful and sometimes results in serious injuries that can affect the quality of your life.
If you do happen to get into an accident, be sure to keep these “do’s” in mind:
- Do get to an area of safety.
- Do notify the police.
- Do take photos of every vehicle involved.
- Do exchange insurance information, and report the accident to your insurance company ASAP.
- Do get a copy of the police report.
- Do seek medical treatment, if necessary.
- Do consult a personal injury attorney if you believe someone else caused the accident.
In a Car Accident? Remember These Don’ts
Here’s my shortlist of things to not do if you find yourself in a car accident:
- Don’t admit fault but do cooperate with the police.
- Don’t communicate directly with the other party after you leave the accident scene.
- Don’t post comments about your accident on social media.
