Being involved in a car accident is stressful enough, but dealing with an uncooperative at-fault driver can compound the frustration. If you find yourself in this situation, it’s important to remain calm and take the following steps:
- Document the Scene: Gather as much evidence as possible, including photos of the damage, license plate numbers, and contact information from any witnesses / dashcam / CCTV.
- Contact Authorities: Call the police to report the accident. Having an official report can be crucial in resolving disputes later on.
- Exchange Information: Even if the other driver is uncooperative, try to obtain their insurance and contact information.
- Seek Legal Advice: If necessary, consult with a lawyer who specializes in car accidents to understand your rights and options for pursuing compensation.
Remember to prioritize your safety and well-being throughout the process, and don’t hesitate to seek support from professionals if needed.
