As a driver, it's important that you know the right steps to take following a car accident to avoid issues and mistakes that can occur if you fail to be prepared. The first step to take is to look for anyone with injuries, which will require calling 911. If everyone is safe, you can start by exchanging your information with the other driver involved. You'll need to have your insurance card and driver's license on hand.
It's also important to avoid apologizing for the accident, especially when talking to the other motorists involved.
