So you have gotten yourself into some sort of accident...what happens next? Usually the police will have you fill out an accident/incident report. This is used for insurance purposes and is needed before you can make a claim. There are many different types of incident reports but I have taken a few tips that will help on pretty much all of them. Here are the tips that will help you when filling out your accident report:
1. Be as clear and accurate as possible.
2. Be specific! Include the time of the accident, where it happened, who was involved, and the sequence of events.
3. Be sure to include the name of the officer and his badge number.
4. Include all the injuries suffered from the accident.
5. Write an estimate of how much the total cost of the accident will be including medical bills.
Hopefully, none of you have to fill one of these out in your lifetime but, just in case you do I hope this will help!
