What To Do If You Are In an Auto Accident in Las Vegas

Collision Authority understands that an accident can be a very confusing and shocking experience. Here is our best advice on what to do in the event of an auto accident in the Las Vegas area or anywhere else in the country.

1. STOP! Don’t make any sudden moves. Take a few brief moments and regain your composure. Don’t panic, the accident is over.

2. Inventory yourself, your passengers and any pedestrians who may have been involved in the accident. Get a quick assessment of any injuries and take basic first aid steps if needed.

3. Get everyone involved in safety. If possible, move the vehicles off the road to prevent any further hazards and turn off the ignitions to prevent fire. Appoint someone to alert oncoming traffic that an accident has occurred.

4. GET HELP! Call 911 if necessary; emergency response units must be notified of any injuries.

5. Limit any discussion of the accident. Don’t discuss fault until law enforcement has had an opportunity to review the facts. If the accident has occurred on private property and didn’t involve any injuries, you should exchange insurance and contact information with the other parties.

6. The information that should be exchanged with the other parties are: drivers names, addresses, phone numbers, identification numbers, vehicles, license plates, insurance companies, policy numbers, witnesses and their contact information.

7. If you need a tow truck, call Century Towing at 360-2383.
