What to Do After a South Brunswick Township Car Accident

From the first seconds after any car accident, it is important that you protect your rights. Insurance companies are in business to make money, and that does not happen when they pay out on claims.

For this reason, you need to be very careful about any information you provide, especially at the scene of the crash.

• Never admit fault for the crash or any part of it.
• Never question your own thoughts or actions to other people out loud.
• Do not discuss possible causes of the accident with bystanders or other drivers involved in the crash.
• Only provide your name and insurance information to the police or drivers involved in the crash.
• Provide details of the crash to your insurance company, but do not volunteer any theories you might have about fault.
• Do not discuss the crash with other drivers’ insurance companies.
• Do not sign anything from an insurance company before you consult with a lawyer.

Sadly, insurance companies are known for manipulating the information you give them to avoid paying out on claims. In addition, details that you provide at the scene can sometimes be used out of context to avoid accountability on another driver’s part.

You are upset and may even be in shock after a violent car crash. Under these circumstances, you might not be thinking clearly. It is best to say nothing until you have time to calm down and collect your thoughts, and talked to an attorney.
