What first thing to do in the Car Accident?
Don’t Panic, calm down (a) look after the injured (b) move the vehicles off the road to lessen the chance of further mishaps.
It is worth trying to get the police to come to an accident but, failing that, go to a police station afterwards and make a full report. This, of course, assumes you are not hurt. If you or others are injured, the first priority is to get professional help.
In a situation where you are uninjured and there are no police in attendance, you should write an accurate statement of what has happened, including street names, time, registration numbers of the vehicles involved, directions in which they were travelling and other relevant facts.
In all States each party in an accident is required to show his or her driver’s licence to the other parties and provide the name and address of the vehicle’s owner.
Ask others involved in the accident, and any witnesses, to sign your report and then write out a copy for the other party (or parties). Make sure you record the name of the other driver (or drivers) plus address, licence number and phone number. Get details of each car and the insurance company of the other driver (or drivers). The accident statement should simply describe the facts, without assigning fault to any party.
You should be aware that you are legally required to render assistance to any animal which you have struck with your car.
