Car Accidents in Utah
Utah drivers experience thousands of car accidents every year, many of which occur on busy highways like Interstate 15. According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, speeding, distracted driving, and aggressive maneuvers continue to be major contributors to highway crashes statewide. Staying alert, patient, and focused can help all drivers do their part to reduce serious collisions on Utah’s freeways.
Being prepared for what to do after a highway accident can help protect you and your claim. Here are some key points:
- Stay Calm and Move to Safety: After a highway crash, if it’s safe to do so, move your vehicle out of active lanes to avoid further collisions. Use hazard lights or flares to warn approaching traffic and stay in a safe location while waiting for help.
- Call for Help Right Away: Contact 911 immediately so emergency responders can assist any injured people and law enforcement can document the scene. Quick action helps prevent additional accidents and ensures proper medical care.
- Document the Scene Thoroughly: Take clear photos of the vehicles, roadway, skid marks, and any visible injuries. Exchange information with other drivers and gather witness statements if possible. These details can be crucial evidence for your insurance claim.
- Watch for Delayed Injuries: Many injuries, such as whiplash or back pain, may not be obvious right after the accident. Always get a medical evaluation, even if you feel okay at first. Early treatment protects your health and supports your claim later.
