What to do Immediately After an Auto Accident.

No one wants to think about it, but on average there are more than 6 million car accidents on American roads every year.  There are some statistics that you need to know that may be eye openers.  More than 3 million people get injured due to car accidents, with more than 2 million of these injuries deemed to be life-alternating.

About 40% of car accident fatalities occur because of a drunken driver.  About 30% of the car accident fatalities in this nation are attributed to driving above the speed limits. Which, let’s face it, most of us are guilty as charged.  And a full 3rd of car accidents are simply attributed to reckless driving.  Here is a sobering statistic, in the age group 1-30 car accidents are the leading cause of death!

If you are involved in a collision make sure everyone is ok at the scene.  Note the specific damage done to EACH vehicle and take pictures with your phone if possible.  Get the license, the insurance, names and numbers of everyone involved.  Call an attorney immediately.  That attorney should be Baltimore car accident lawyer Briana Arnold.  Attorney Arnold will help you to get on a path toward a fair and full settlement.  Call her today for an appointment at her Baltimore office at (410) 484-1400.
