Helpful Tips if You've Been in an Auto Accident

We are frequently asked to give advice about what to do when an automobile accident happens. 

1. First, call 911 and report the accident and if you are injured tell them you need medical assistance.

2. Take a second to assess your situation as you are likely to be shaken up and emotions are running high. Your adrenalin is in high gear. If you are injured, just stay in your car until the firefighters and paramedics arrive to assess your injuries.

3. If you do get out of your car, make sure it is safe to get out. Many times accidents happen on interstate highways and people suffer severe injuries after they get out of their car and get hit by oncoming vehicles.
