What You Should Do After A Car Accident:

There are specific steps you should be taking after you have been in a car accident. Following these steps are imperative to making sure you will be covered on your pain and suffering you are going through:

  • Call 911 Immediately
  • Report Your Injuries: If you are having pain or have suffered an injury go to the Hospital immediately and seek medical attention and tell the emergency room physician everything you can about the crash including any pain you are having. If you are experiencing dizziness or confusion and have trouble remembering things make sure you mention that as well, this could be evidence of a brain injury. 
  • If You Do Not Need Medical Attention: Get the insurance information from the other driver(s) including their license plate number driver’s license number at the scene. If the police arrive at the scene this information will usually be on the “Information Exchange Sheet”.
  • Obtain Witness Information: If you are physically able to, get all witnesses names, addresses and telephone numbers. If not, the Police Report should contain this information.
  • Take Pictures: If you are physically able to, take as many pictures of the crash scene as possible. Include photos of the car that caused the crash and all other cars involved.
  • Don’t Speak About The Crash: Do not talk to anyone about the crash or your injuries, especially an insurance adjuster. Only discuss the crash with police at the scene, witnesses, your treating healthcare provider(s) and your Attorney.
  • Do Not Sign Anything: Do not sign anything related to the crash until you have consulted with your Attorney.

Common Causes Of Car Accidents In Arizona

Some of the leading causes of car accidents in Arizona are:

  • DUI Of Drugs Or Alcohol: When someone is operating a vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol they do not have control of the vehicle. They tend to be easily distracted and have slowed reaction times which leads to an accident. 

  • Drivers Being Distracted: In the era of cell phones and social media, people are on their phones more than ever. When they are on their phones, looking at their GPS or playing with the radio, they are more likely to have an accident due to them not paying attention to the road. 

  • Failing To Obey Traffic Laws: Speeding, driving recklessly and failing to stop at stop signs or red lights are just some examples of breaking traffic laws that lead to accidents. They should be held liable for any injuries they cause.
