First Steps: What to Do After a Bicycle Accident
1. Get Information
Record as much information as possible. Get names, driver's licenses, and insurance information of everyone involved. Note other details that you may forget later, such as time, streets, and models of the vehicles and bikes involved.
2. Take Photos
Photos will help you a lot in court cases. Make sure you take photographs of the accident scene, of the road and surrounding conditions, and closeups of both the vehicle and the bike. Details in each photo can be used to help build a strong case.
3. Keep a Diary
In addition to recording the events of the accident, be sure to record correspondence and any medical events in the following days. Bicycle accident cases can last weeks to months in court, and it can be easy to forget details and timelines.
