Immediately After an Accident
In the moments right after your Georgia car accident or truck wreck, it is important to:
- Seek medical attention for anyone who is injured and for yourself.
- Call the police to report the accident and allow the police to conduct an accident investigation.
- Get the names and numbers of any witnesses to the crash.
- Get the name, number, address, driver’s license number, license plate number and insurance information for all of the other drivers involved in the crash.
- Take pictures (with your cell phone) of the accident scene, and take notes of conditions just prior to and after the collision.
