Steps to Take After an Auto Wreck in Corpus Christi

1. Safety: After any vehicle wreck, your car may be in the path of oncoming traffic or even damaged. If your collision was minor and all the vehicles are moveable, you should consider driving your particular vehicle over to the side of the road to a safe location. If any person at the accident scene was been injured get medical help as quickly as possible. If it could be too much of a danger to move your vehicle, exit your vehicle as fast as you can and get to a safer location like either side of the road which is a safe distance from the scene of the accident.

2. Police: Always make sure to call the appropriate law enforcement agency for help. If you are not sure, call 911 and ask for help after reporting the accident. Even in a minor traffic accident, the appropriate police can help to safely direct traffic and to prepare the needed accident report. Depending upon the existence of injuries, someone may need to request emergency medical attention.

3. Exchange Information: Exchange your insurance information and name with all other drivers who were involved in the accident. You should also get the license plate numbers of all other vehicles involved in the accident. It is unnecessary for you to provide the other drivers with any further personal information regarding your injuries or your home address. Politely and truthfully answer any questions from the police and politely give them any information they may request.

4. Photos. If you are able to do so safely, try and get pictures of each individual vehicle involved in the accident in addition to at least one of the entire incident scene. Take photographs, if you can, of your vehicle’s damage as well as any possible debris in the road that may be of help to you to prove your damages claims.

5. Make Phone Calls: After you have gotten any medical treatment you need immediately, it is very important for you to contact your own insurance carrier and to give them all the details about the accident and what you know at the time of the call about any injuries.
