1
PULL OVER AND CALL 911.
When you are involved in a car accident, you need
to immediately pull over out of the line of
traffic, if possible. If you or anyone else
involved in the accident is seriously injured,
you should call 911.

EXCHANGE INFORMATION.

Without sufficient information about the parties
involved in the accident, it may be difficult to
hold the right parties accountable for your
injuries and obtain the full compensation that
you deserve. You should make sure to exchange
names, address, telephone number, insurance
information and drivers license information with
all of the parties involved in the accident. If
there are any witnesses to the accident, you
should obtain their personal information as well.

TAKE PICTURES OF THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT
As the saying goes, pictures are worth a thousand
words. The details of the accident scene, such
as damage to all of the cars involved in the
accident, skid marks and the surrounding scene
of the accident, is especially important if
liability is disputed.

SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT.
Even if you think that you are not seriously
injured immediately after the accident, you
should still seek medical treatment. Symptoms of
certain medical conditions may not surface until
days or weeks after an accident.
