Auto Accident Tips

If you are in an auto accident, remember the following tips:
Call the police.
Obtain information such as the names, addresses, telephone numbers and license numbers of all persons involved in the accident, as well as all witnesses.
Record the time, date, location, road conditions, make and year of the vehicles involve, insurance information, apparent damage and injuries, as well as your version of what happened.
When you call our agency, make sure to have your policy number and other relevant information on hand. Ask your agent what documents, forms and data you'll need to file a claim.
Take notes each time you talk to your insurance company, agent, lawyers, police or anyone else involved in the situation. Write down the dates, times, names and what you talked about, as well as any decisions or promises made.
Save receipts and bills, including those from a car rental or hotel room if the auto accident happens outside of your town.
To avoid accidents, make sure you check the latest weather reports to avoid storms. The latest road conditions can be found at www.dot.wisconsin.gov or by calling 1-800-ROADSWIS.
