An accident with your car, truck, or motorcycle
can be a life-changing, traumatic event. You
may be in a state of shock and unaware of
the severity of any injuries you may have
received, and it's not unusual to feel confusion.
You should first try to remain calm and determine
the extent of any injuries you or others may
have received. Since motor vehicle, pedestrian,
or bicycle accidents can cause massive internal
injuries as well as serious head, neck, and
back injuries, it may be prudent to only let
trained and qualified people move anyone who's
been injured.
If you can, you should move to the side of
the road as soon as possible and away from
further danger. Call the police or Highway
Patrol, and if flares or traffic hazard notices
are available, those should be placed around
the accident scene.
You should get the name and contact information
of everyone involved in the wreck, including
all the insurance information. Make a note
of license plate numbers and a full description
of the accident and the scene as you can.
Make notes of the condition of all vehicles
involved and get contact information for any
witnesses, but refrain from saying anything
to anyone about who was at fault.
You should seek medical treatment as soon
as possible. Some neck injuries may not show
up until days or longer have passed. If you
want to insure that your rights are maintained
and that you receive the highest possible
settlement from insurance companies, you should
