Next Steps to Take After an Accident
1
Check for Injuries
Immediately check yourself and others for signs of injuries. If anyone is hurt call 911 right away!
2
Get to a Safe Location
If possible pull over to the side of the road or to a safe area to prevent traffic or the risk of another collision. If this is not possible, get yourself to safety.
3
Call the Police
Even in a minor accident, it is important to get a police report to document the incident.
4
Document the Scene
Take photos or videos of the accident scene, including vehicle positions, damage, road conditions, and any visible injuries
5
Gather Witness Details
If there were any witnesses, ask for their contact information and a brief statement about what they saw
6
Notify Your Insurance
Inform your Insurance company as soon as possible and start the claim process. Provide them with all the information they need.
7
Seek Medical Attention
You might not have any symptoms of injury right after the accident, but that doesn’t mean you have no injuries. Be sure to get medically evaluated as soon as possible.
8
Consult a Lawyer
The attorney can take care of gathering evidence, consulting with experts, and negotiating on your behalf while you focus on recovering.
Common Trucking Accident Injuries
Whiplash and Neck Injuries:
Whiplash causes neck pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion that can interfere with daily activities. With prompt diagnosis and appropriate therapy, many patients recover well; however, when left untreated or inadequately managed, whiplash can progress to chronic pain and long-term functional limitations.
Lacerations and Burns:
Cuts and burns from flying debris or fire often cause deep scars, chronic infections, and lasting disfigurement. Treatment usually needs several surgeries (cleaning wounds, grafts, reconstruction), careful wound and infection care, repeated hospital stays, long recovery with physical therapy, and ongoing cosmetic and mental-health follow-up.
Internal Damages:
Blunt-force trauma in accidents can cause significant internal damage to organs such as the liver or lungs, frequently necessitating prompt and sometimes intensive medical treatment.
Traumatic Brain Injuries:
Traumatic brain injuries, ranging from concussions to major head trauma, can produce headaches, cognitive impairments, and emotional or behavioral changes. In severe instances, surgical intervention may be necessary and survivors can experience lasting disabilities.
Spinal Injuries:
Spinal injuries can lead to partial or complete paralysis, require complex surgery, and necessitate prolonged rehabilitation and long-term therapy, significantly reducing mobility and diminishing overall quality of life.
Fractured and Broken Bones:
Fractures and broken bones frequently require surgical fixation using plates, screws, or other hardware to ensure proper alignment. Healing often takes several months of immobilization followed by progressive rehabilitation, and severe breaks can lead to prolonged pain, reduced strength, or lasting impairment of function.
