Get the Driver’s Information - Most importantly, be sure to get the driver’s information so that you can contact them later and your insurance can find them if needed. Also, if there are other witnesses, try and get their contact information as well. If possible, try and document the scene with pictures.
Contact the Police - An official police report can help to get the necessary information and stories. Because police reports are official legal documents, they serve as strong pieces of evidence.
Seek Medical Attention - Seeing a healthcare provider is crucial to assess for any internal damages. However, seeing a healthcare provider also has a dual purpose. By seeking attention immediately after the accident, you’ll have an official medical record that can help to prove causation of the accident and the extent of actual damages suffered.
Prepare to Give Statements - Almost immediately after the incident, insurance companies will want to get involved. Both yours and the driver’s insurance company may want you to give an official statement. Note that these statements can be used as strong pieces of evidence to assess your pedestrian accident claim.
