Tips on What to Do After an Accident  

Being involved in a car crash is a horrible experience and it can happen to anyone on the  road. When you don’t know how to act after a car accident, it can make a bad situation  much worse. Here are some tips on what to do after an accident: 

Don’t Leave the Scene of the Accident: Florida has laws that prohibit drivers from  leaving the scene of the accident. If you fail to stop your vehicle after a car accident, you  may face fines and criminal charges. Essentially, it means the accident scene is now a  crime scene. When you do stop at the scene of the accident, make sure you stop at a  safe place at the side of the road to avoid further accidents.  

Call 911: After an accident, it is important that you call 911 and get emergency first  responders and police officers out to the scene as soon as possible. It doesn’t matter who  was at fault for the accident. When officers come out to the scene of the accident, they  will create a police report detailing your accident. A police report is one of the most relied  upon pieces of evidence that may be used in any court case relating to your accident. 

Exchange Information with Other Driver: Another important task that police officers  can assist with is the exchange of information between you and the other drivers involved  in the car accident. This is especially helpful after a car accident where you are sure to  be in shock. Many drivers fail to obtain the information needed to pursue their personal  injury claim and regret it later.  

Obtain Medical Treatment: After a crash, you may not notice the severity of your injuries.  Adrenaline dampens the sensation of injury after a crash. It is important to always get  medical attention after an accident, don’t make this mistake. 

Don’t Admit Fault: This seems like a given but it’s important to mention this tip because  it is a commonly made mistake after an accident. No matter what, don’t admit liability,  plain and simple. Oftentimes, people admit liability without realizing what they’re doing.  When you don’t know what to answer, it’s well within your right to remain completely  silent.
