The first step is to take photos of both vehicles at the point of impact. People rush to move their cars to the side of the road because they act with emotion.

When the police arrive, they will take down information and later write a report. In accidents without injury, the police will instruct the involved parties to exchange contact and insurance information. It is important to know that an injury is any discomfort at all. Any discomfort should be mentioned to the police so a proper report and record can be taken.
