Obtain Protective Information |
|
Just as the law requires you to give certain information, you are entitled to the same information form other persons involved in the accident. Do not fail to obtain this information. In addition to the names and addresses of the persons actually involved, make an effort to obtain the names and addresses of all persons who witnessed the accident. Witnesses may be important later if legal action becomes necessary. Also, if reasonable to do so:
- Make notes of the important aspects of the collision to help you remember them.
- Diagram the exact position of the vehicles before and after the accident.
- Step off skid marks and other important distances.
Such precautions may prove invaluable in the event that legal questions develop.
