What Should I Do If I Have Been Involved in a Motorcycle or Bicycle Accident?
- DO NOT admit fault: be sure to acquire as much evidence as you can and don’t make any statements of guilt.
- Call 911: if you are hurt, don’t hesitate to seek medical attention. Make sure you are honest and accurate with the Police, they can be your best ally in your case. Sometimes the at-fault party can change their story, but a police report carries a significant weight in establishing your credibility.
- Find Eye Witnesses: to further back up your story, other onlookers often provide necessary details and corroboration.
- Take pictures: Photograph both your bicycle and the at-fault car, your injuries, and anything pertaining to the accident.
- Gather and Record all Details: License Plates, VIN number, make and model of the car can greatly help your case. Physical characteristics of the driver, and information about the time, location, and any other people involved are other valuable details to have.
