STEPS TO TAKE AFTER A TEXAS 18-WHEELER TRUCK
ACCIDENT
2
SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION AND CALL THE POLICE
If you or anyone else involved in the accident is
injured, seek medical attention immediately. Once
you have ensured your safety, call the local law
enforcement agency to report the accident. A
police report is an essential piece of evidence
when filing an insurance claim or personal injury
lawsuit.

DOCUMENT THE SCENE AND GATHER INFORMATION
Documenting the scene of the accident can
significantly strengthen your claim. Use your
smartphone or a camera to take photographs of the
damage to all vehicles involved, the position of
the vehicles after the accident, skid marks, and
visible injuries. Additionally, gather the
following information from all parties involved,
including full names and contact information,
driver's license numbers, insurance company names
and policy numbers, and the name and contact
information of any witnesses.
4
NOTIFY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY
Promptly notify your insurance company about the
accident, even if you were not at fault. Most
insurance policies require policyholders to
report accidents as soon as possible. When
speaking with your insurance adjuster, provide
them with the basic facts about the accident but
avoid giving a recorded statement or admitting
fault.
