Car Accidents in Utah
Every year, thousands of Utah residents are hurt in car accidents that could have been avoided. According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, common causes include speeding, distracted driving, and failing to yield the right-of-way. Crashes like this one on State Street remind us that staying alert, obeying posted signs, and following traffic laws can make a significant difference when it comes to avoiding serious injuries on Utah’s roads.
Knowing what to do after a crash can help protect your health and your rights:
- Stay at the Scene: Always remain at the scene until law enforcement arrives. Leaving can lead to legal consequences and may impact your insurance claim.
- Check for Injuries: Look for any signs of injury to yourself and others. If needed, call 911 for immediate medical assistance.
- Exchange Information: Get contact and insurance details from other drivers involved. This is vital for your claim and any future legal action.
- Document Everything: Take photos of vehicle damage, road conditions, traffic signs, and any injuries. This evidence can be crucial later on.
- Notify Insurance: Contact your insurance company as soon as possible to report the accident and begin your claim.
- Seek Medical Care: Some injuries do not show symptoms right away. A prompt medical check ensures your well-being and creates important documentation.
If you have been injured in a crash, reach out to a Provo car accident attorney. Speaking with a lawyer quickly can help protect your rights and ensure that important evidence is not lost. An attorney can deal with insurance companies, gather witness statements, and build a strong case for the compensation you deserve.
