What To Do in Case of a Car Accident in San Bernardino, CA

Since car accidents are unexpected, knowing exactly what to do after being involved in one can be confusing. First, you should check on all passengers, drivers, and pedestrians involved. If they need medical help, call for an ambulance immediately. Make sure that you don’t move anyone who is unconscious or reports back or neck pain unless their life is in imminent danger, for example, a fire or oncoming traffic. You also need to do the following:

• Call the police to report any deaths, injuries, or substantial property damage. Get the names and badge numbers of officers who are at the scene of the accident. Later, you need to call the police department and request the accident report.
• Take pictures of all parties involved, including their driver’s licenses and insurance cards.
• Take pictures of all vehicles involved, including their license plates, any visible damages, and points of rest of the automobiles.
