Accidents occur for a lot of reasons, and it ranges from the negligence of drivers to a defect in the makeup of the vehicle. Whatever the reason, authorities have advised that the best thing to do when an accident occurs is to stay as calm as possible.

A driver should park his or her car at the scene of the accident or the nearest possible place where traffic will not get affected. Then the driver should check for injuries or damaged property, and follow it by dialing 911.

Before the authorities arrive, the driver should take photos of the scene, and statement of witnesses before they disperse. Then give a concise explanation of how the accident occurred to the police, and if necessary, contact an attorney.
