What to Do After a Car Accident?

Being in a car accident can be overwhelming, whether it’s a minor fender bender or something more serious. At Euro Collision, we understand the stress and uncertainty that come with such incidents. Follow these key steps to ensure your safety and a smooth process:

Step 1: Stay Calm and Assess the Situation

  • Check yourself and others for injuries. Your safety is the top priority.
  • If it’s safe, move your vehicle to the side of the road to avoid obstructing traffic.
  • Turn on your hazard lights to signal other drivers.

Step 2: Remain at the Scene

  • Never leave the accident scene until the situation has been resolved.
  • Contact the authorities if required or fill out an accident report to document the details.
  • If both parties agree, you may exchange insurance and contact information without police involvement, but this depends on local regulations.

Step 3: Call the Police if Necessary

Immediate police involvement is mandatory if:

  • There are injuries to anyone involved.
  • You’re a victim of a hit-and-run, theft, or vandalism.
  • The accident occurs outside your local jurisdiction.

Step 4: Document the Incident

  • Take photos of the scene, including all vehicles involved, license plates, and any visible damage.
  • Collect contact and insurance details from other drivers.
  • Note down witness statements if possible.
