Auto Accident Tips

What to do in case of an accident.

If anyone is injured, call 9-1-1. Do not move injured people unless absolutely necessary. Render only the first aid that you are qualified to give.

Use the accident kit we have provided you to record the name, address, and phone number of the other driver, along with their vehicle and insurance information. Also try to collect info from witnesses or third party passengers.

Be careful about what you say - including any admission of fault. Even casual remarks can be used in court.

Examine the damage carefully. If you have access to a camera or cell phone camera, take photos.

Stay calm and call us or your insurance company. Your company's 24 hour reporting phone number is generally located on your auto insurance ID card.
