How to Report an accident? (Unit 7)

A car accident can happen when you least expect it. You could be switching lanes looking for a parking space or pulling out of your driveway, and all of a sudden, crash!

Whether you hit someone or another driver hits you, you need to know what to do after a car accident. Here’s a checklist to keep in mind when it comes to reporting your car accident.

(1)Take down the other driver's license plate number as well as the make, color and model of the vehicle. If there is no pen and paper available, repeat the numbers in your head until you can write them down or snap a picture with your mobile phone.

(2)Call the police. Police will be needed on scene to direct traffic and to help get all vehicles to safety. Also, a police report is needed for the insurance company to determine who is responsible for paying the damages.

(3)Check for injuries to yourself and to your passengers before getting out of the car. Never step out of the car into moving traffic.

(4)Look for witnesses. Politely ask the witnesses (if any) to wait with you until the police come so that they can give their statements about the crash.

(5)Exchange contact information with the other driver for insurance and payment issues。

(6) Report the accident to your insurance company just in case you may need to file a

claim.

And a final note: protecting your safety is the first priority after a car accident. Turn on

your hazard lights as soon as possible and put up other signals behind the crash scene so that other drivers should proceed carefully and safely.
