What Should I Do Right After a Vehicle, Pedestrian, or Bike Accident?
- Call the police/911 emergency number to file a police report.
- Seek immediate medical attention at the scene/follow up with your health professional.
- Gather the witness contact information from bystanders.
- Take note of any traffic court date issued to the other driver and be prepared to attend.
- Take photographs of your injuries and damage to your vehicle.
- Notify your own insurance company about the collision.
- Save items like damaged bicycles, e-bikes, shoes, helmets, car seats, clothing, or backpacks without repairing them.
- If there are passengers involved in the accident, have them follow the same steps.
