Call 911 if anyone is injured or if the damage is significant.<\/p><p>Once emergency responders arrive, cooperate with police and medical personnel.

One common mistake is failing to collect evidence at the scene. Without photos, videos, or witness statements, it\u2019s much harder to prove that you weren\u2019t at fault. Another mistake is apologizing or admitting fault, even when you\u2019re just trying to be polite. These statements can be used against you later.<\/p><p>Delaying medical treatment is another costly mistake. If you don\u2019t see a doctor right away, the insurance company may argue that your injuries aren\u2019t serious or weren\u2019t caused by the accident.
