Car Accidents in Utah
Across Utah, roadway accidents remain a leading cause of injury. In just one year, more than 25,000 people statewide required emergency care following a crash. These incidents happen at all times of day, but evening hours often see a spike in collisions due to low visibility and higher traffic volume. Ogden, with its mix of urban traffic and connecting highways, sees its fair share of injury-related crashes each month.
Many victims are caught off guard by the steps they must take after an accident. Below are some crucial things to keep in mind:
- Documenting the Scene: Photos of the vehicles, roadway conditions, and visible injuries can provide essential evidence. If it’s safe to do so, collect pictures and videos as soon as possible after the crash. These can help support your version of events later.
- Getting Immediate Medical Attention: Even if injuries seem minor, it’s important to be evaluated by a doctor. Some injuries may not show symptoms right away. Medical records are also a critical part of building a strong legal case.
- Reporting the Accident: Always notify the police and request a formal report. This document becomes part of your claim and can establish who was at fault. Be sure to get the report number and follow up if needed.
- Avoiding Early Insurance Statements: Insurance adjusters may try to get you to make statements or accept settlements quickly. Anything you say can be used to reduce your claim. Speak with an attorney before giving formal statements.
- Keeping Track of Expenses: Start a folder for all receipts, bills, and notes related to the accident. Include lost wages, medical bills, transportation costs, and any out-of-pocket spending. These details will be useful when seeking full compensation.
