    Being injured in a car crash is a traumatic experience. It can be overwhelming and confusing, leaving you feeling helpless as you try to figure out what to do next. The good news is that there are steps you can take after being injured in a car crash that will help protect your rights, ensure medical care for your injuries, and potentially result in financial compensation 

    This article will discuss the top seven things to do after being injured in a car crash so that you can make sure all of your bases are covered.

    Seek medical attention

    The first and most important thing to do after being injured in a car crash is to seek immediate medical attention. Even if your injuries seem minor, it’s still important to visit your doctor or the hospital for a full examination. This will not only ensure you receive proper treatment for your injuries but also provide documentation of the cause and extent of your injuries.

    Oftentimes, the symptoms of an injury may not appear until days or weeks after a car crash. By visiting your doctor right away, you can be sure that all of your injuries have been properly identified and treated.

    Consider the expenses of the lawsuit

    If you decide to pursue a lawsuit due to your injuries, it’s important to consider the financial cost of doing so.

    Taking legal action can be expensive, and if you don’t have the resources to pay for an attorney or other costs associated with a lawsuit, it may be best to look into alternate forms of compensation such as insurance claims or settlements. There are also auto accident loans available to those who find themselves in need of legal funds. Finally, you can also consider working with a personal injury lawyer on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if your case is successful.

    Gather evidence

    If you decide to pursue legal action, and for a lawsuit to be successful, it’s important to have evidence that proves fault on the part of another party. Evidence can include things such as eyewitness testimony, photos and videos of the crash scene and any vehicle damage, medical records, police reports, and more. It’s important to gather and preserve this evidence as soon as possible after the crash, as it will be crucial for any legal proceedings.

    On the other hand, it’s also important to document all conversations and communications that happen between yourself and any other parties involved in the crash. This includes phone calls, emails, and any other form of communication.

    Keep a journal

    It’s also a good idea to keep a detailed journal of your accident which should include everything from the initial moments of the accident up until today. Writing down details such as your physical and emotional state, conversations with witnesses or the responding police officer, and any details that seemed significant at the time can be extremely helpful in proving fault.

    Additionally, documenting the effects of your injuries can be key in helping to prove the severity and extent of the damages you are claiming.

    Consult a lawyer

    One of the most important steps to take after being injured in a car crash is to consult with a personal injury lawyer. A qualified lawyer can provide invaluable legal advice, help guide you through court proceedings, and give you a better understanding of your legal rights.

    An attorney can also help you to maximize your settlement or award by negotiating with the insurance companies on your behalf.

    Insurance claims

    It’s important to understand that filing a claim with an insurance company does not necessarily mean you have to pursue legal action. In some cases, the other parties involved in the accident may be willing to issue an out-of-court settlement which can save time and money.

    It’s best to consult with legal counsel before accepting any settlement because, even if it appears to be in your best interest, there may be hidden factors that could hurt you in the end.

    Recovery and rehabilitation

    Finally, it’s important to remember that your recovery should be your top priority. Seek out professional help such as physical or occupational therapy, or even counseling if needed. Take time to rest and heal, and try to focus on regaining both physically and mentally.

    Don’t rush the process – it’s important to give your body the time it needs to heal properly.

    By following these steps, you can be sure that your case will get the attention it deserves and that you’ll receive fair compensation for any injuries or damages sustained in a car crash. Seek professional legal advice as soon as possible and make sure you understand all of your rights before taking any legal action. Don’t forget to take the time and space you need to heal, both mentally and physically.

    Following these simple tips can help make sure your case stays on track and that you get the outcome you’re looking for.

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
