While we cannot provide legal advice to those who are not clients, here are some basic
tips to keep in mind:

1. Call the Authorities
Report the accident to local law enforcement. A police report can be an essential document for your claim.

2. Gather Information
Collecting detailed information at the scene of the accident is vital for your case. Be sure to gather the following:

• Names and contact information of all parties involved
• Insurance information for all drivers
• License plate numbers of the vehicles involved
• Driver’s license numbers
• Contact information for any witnesses

Additionally, it is very important to take photographs of the accident scene, including vehicle damage, road conditions, and any relevant traffic signs or signals. These details can be invaluable for your insurance claim and any legal actions.

3. Seek Medical Attention
Even if you feel fine, it’s important to seek medical attention after an accident. Some injuries, such as whiplash or concussions, may not manifest symptoms immediately. Visiting a doctor will not only ensure your health but also create a medical record that can support your personal injury claim later.

4. Consult with a Miami Truck Accident Attorney

5. Be Cautious with Social Media
After a truck accident, it’s wise to be cautious about what you share on social media. Insurance companies may monitor your posts, and anything you say could be used against you in a claim. Avoid discussing the accident or sharing photos online until your case is resolved.
