What to do when you are in a car crash
Make sure you are safe and immediately call 911 or the police.
Accept emergency transportation to a local hospital if it is recommended by emergency services. If you feel you may be are severely injured, can’t remember what happened, hit your head, have any neck or back pain, facial injuries, chest or abdominal pain, any other immediate pain, bleeding or deformities take immediate transport to the nearest most appropriate hospital. Protecting your health is the number one priority. Remember that many injuries, even severe ones, may not present immediately. It is not uncommon that you do not recognize that you have pain or injury until the shock of the incident fades.
If you do not get transported by emergency services, gather information if you are able. Take photographs of your vehicle and the other vehicles involved. Attempt to gather information like names and insurance information of anyone involved in the crash. Gather names and phone numbers of any witnesses.
Obtain the report number from the police if possible. Once the police release you from the scene of the crash seek medical attention. Contact your primary care doctor or head to the closest emergency department or emergency walk-in center. Your injuries may not be apparent until hours after the crash or more.
Remember to keep track of all medical providers you see. Your medical record is the most important evidence you will have to support your claim.
