When you live in Minnesota, car crashes are inevitable. Whether it happens in the winter or another time of year, there is much that you can do in order to help. While 911 is one of the obvious things to do, there’s actually quite a bit more that you can do as well.<\/p>\n
Secure your car<\/strong><\/p>\n It’s great that you want to help others, but you have to look out for yourself, first. Park your car away from the accident and then walk over.<\/p>\n Check on the victims<\/strong><\/p>\n When you’re on the phone with 911, check on the victims. This can help the operator know how much help needs to be sent. They may also give you some guidance as to how you can help everyone a little further.<\/p>\n Turn their cars off<\/strong><\/p>\n If the cars involved in the crash are still on, turn them off. This can be done by the driver or by you.<\/p>\n Wait for help to arrive<\/strong><\/p>\n Depending on where you are and what the road conditions are, it can take a while for help to arrive. Sit patiently and keep the victims occupied so they can stay calm. Sometimes all it takes is knowing that there is someone there looking after them.<\/p>\n Leave a statement<\/strong><\/p>\n Leave a statement with the police as to what you saw. Don’t admit to any kind of fault if you were on the roads with the other cars. Also, your contact information may be shared with an insurance company and potentially even a lawyer so that they can follow up as to what you witnessed.<\/p>\n Call and talk to us at Pizano Insurance now.
