Insist that a report be filed with the police.
-
Obtain the name, address, insurance information, vehicle license number and driver's license number of all other drivers involved in the accident.
-
Obtain the names, addresses and telephone numbers of all witnesses.
-
Photograph the accident scene, including all vehicles involved and any visible injuries.
-
Talk to no one about the accident or injuries other than your doctor or lawyer.
