Immediate Actions after a Motorcycle Accident

Prioritize Medical Treatment:

Immediate medical attention is paramount. Focus on your well-being before considering insurance claims. Assess your condition and seek prompt medical assistance, whether through an ambulance or with assistance from friends or family.

Contact the Police:

Report the accident to the local police department. An officer will gather essential information for future legal proceedings, including names, contact details, witness statements, fault determination, and insurance information.

Capture the Scene:

Document the accident scene with photographs before vehicles are moved. These visuals, combined with additional images of injuries and Google Earth images, serve as crucial evidence during the claims process.

Collect Witness Information:

Obtain contact information from witnesses. This ensures the availability of statements if not collected by the on-scene officer.

Consult an Attorney Immediately:

Before providing statements to the insurance company, seek advice from an attorney. This is particularly important when deciding between health insurance, med pay insurance, or dealing with hospital liens for injuries.
