In the meantime
- Get medical attention, even if you feel fine. Some injuries show up days later and the record matters.
- Photograph everything: vehicles, the scene, the hazard, your injuries, the weather.
- Get names and numbers for every witness and the other party's insurance details.
- Do not give a recorded statement to any insurance company or sign anything they send.
- Keep every bill, receipt and missed-work note in one folder.
