    The Right Way To Deal With A Traffic Accident From A Legal Standpoint

    Getting into a traffic accident can result in many damages, both physical and emotional. Not knowing what to do after you’ve been in an accident or who to call can get you a little confused. There are a few things you should do after you’ve been in an accident. Here’s the right way to deal with a traffic accident from a legal standpoint.

    Get to Safety

    To begin with, you shouldn’t panic so that you’re able to think clearly. The first thing you must do is to move to safety. Standing in the middle of the road risks your life and anyone else involved in the accident. If it is possible, move the cars to the side of the road, if not wait until a tow car arrives. Once you’ve made sure everyone is safe, you can then call for help.

    Call Your Emergency Hotline

    It is essential that you dial your emergency hotline as soon as you can, especially if you or anyone else has been injured. After a few minutes, police officers will arrive at the accident scene to get your testimony and the other involved party’s testimony. Up until the police arrive you shouldn’t violently attack the other party whether verbally or physically. You shouldn’t, at any point, admit guilt for the accident. When you’re talking to the police make sure that you don’t at any point lie about any detail. If you’re not sure whether this information should be shared or not, just say that you don’t know. Once an ambulance arrives at the scene, be sure to get yourself checked. Even if you believe that there’s nothing wrong with you, you might have internal bleeding.

    Collect Data and Evidence

    After you’ve gotten to safety and have called your emergency hotline, you can start gathering evidence and data. Evidence can be anything that can help your case. Write down any surveillance camera  locations you can find that might have caught the accident. Take pictures of both cars, and nearby pictures of the damaged parts as evidence of the damages done. Take a picture of the license plate and write it down as well. Ask the other driver for their contact information and provide them with your contact information as well.

    Call Your Attorney

    Accidents generally require so much legal work. It is very important that you get in contact with your lawyer as soon as you can, or to get one if you’re not already in contact with one. One of the most dangerous types of accidents mentioned by a truck accident attorney in Georgia is truck accidents because they result in the most life -threatening injuries to the car driver. Your attorney must be someone that you can be open and truthful with. Lying to your attorney or hiding important details from them can really complicate your case and make it harder for you to receive your rightful compensation. Even sharing minor details with your lawyer will help, even if they seem insignificant to you because they can be very crucial to your case.

    File Your Claim

    Often you’ll need to file your claim in a specific time period that is required by insurance companies or by the law. Make sure that your report is legally proofed, you can ask your lawyer for help with that. You need to follow up with your claim as well and get in contact with your insurance provider or the party responsible for your injury expenses and compensation.

    Consult Your Attorney

    Your attorney will know what you can and cannot do from a legal perspective. You need to consult your attorney before taking any steps in your case to make sure that it will not result in harm to you. If anyone from the other party tries to approach you to talk, make sure that you don’t have any conversations without consulting your attorney or asking them if it’s okay. Don’t, under any circumstances, agree to or sign on any deals without getting your attorney’s approval of the deal to make sure that the deal is of benefit for you and that it doesn’t incriminate you or strip you of your rights in any way.

    The process of getting over your accident’s impact on your physical and emotional health can be a little hard and long, not to mention the process of receiving your rightful compensation. Surrounding yourself with loving friends and family, and having a trustful and good attorney beside you will ensure that you will get over this time and that you will receive every penny that you deserve as well.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
