You’ve just been in a Houston semi accident. Your body is full of adrenaline, and your mind is spinning. You just want someone to tell you what to do to make it through this.
Fortunately, we can help.
Five things to remember after you’ve been in a Texas truck crash:
- Remain calm. This may be the hardest step, but it is crucial. Take deep breaths to clear your head, and prepare to speak clearly to police and ambulance drivers.
- Take pictures. If you are not injured and your car is not in traffic, get out and take pictures of the damage, the truck, and the accident scene using your cell phone camera.
- Report the truck driver. Paperwork is evidence. By filing a report with the police and the trucking company, you are building evidence against the trucker that can be invaluable to your case.
- Get it in writing. Always request a copy of the police report from the officer at the scene.
- See you doctor. Even if you don’t think you are seriously injured, always schedule a checkup with your doctor to be sure.
