If injuries are involved, do not move your vehicle unless necessary for safety. Call 911 immediately. Gather the other driver’s information, including their name, phone number, driver’s license, vehicle details, and insurance information. Document the accident by noting the time, date, and location, and collect any witness details. Use your phone to take photos of the scene and vehicle damage.
Severe weather, such as hail, tornados, and high winds, can cause significant damage to vehicles. If your vehicle sustains storm damage, start by contacting your insurance agent to report the incident. Take photos of all visible damage, both inside and out. If your vehicle is unsafe to drive, arrange for a tow.
