paramedics if anyone appears to be injured. Injuries can occur even from seemingly minor accidents. It’s important for health reasons and for any claim for damages, that accident victims be checked out by paramedics.
Regardless of apparent injury, call the police and ask for an office be sent to the scene. This is important even if the appears to be minor accident. A police report created at the time of the accident is extremely important in ascertaining which driver is legally at fault.

Take photographs of the accident scene, including the vehicles involved, the location of traffic signals, and any obvious skid marks, debris, or other evidence. You may also want to take notes on the weather and road conditions at the time of the accident.
