What To Do Immediately After A Car Accident

 

Staying calm in the moment is so important when you have been involved in a car wreck.  If you have a checklist in your head, you will not only be able to take care of first things first but also protect yourself in the days following.  We are taught to recognize health scares such as heart attacks and strokes, but possible car accidents don’t come with a manual so keep this checklist close at hand in the event you ever find yourself involved in a car accident.

 

What are your first steps following a car accident?

 

Let’s take a look at the earliest proper steps following a car accident.

 

1.  Is anyone injured?  That is always first and foremost.  If so, call 911.

2.  Is your car blocking any travel lane?  We don’t need a multi-car pile-up.

3.  Are you able to safely move it?  Don’t try to be a hero at this point.

4.  Talk to the other driver.  Get their information before things get hectic.

5. As soon as you can, write down as much as possible about the accident while it is still fresh in your mind.
